Arroz con salsa
Arroz con salsa is a delicious dish that translates to "rice with sauce" in Spanish. It typically consists of cooked rice served with a flavorful sauce made from ingredients like tomatoes, spices, vegetables, and sometimes meat or seafood.
Ingredients
- 2 cups white rice
- 1 can diced tomatoes
- 1 onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 bell pepper diced
- 1 jalapeño pepper diced (optional for spice)
- 2 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil
- Fresh cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- In a large skillet or pot, heat some olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, bell pepper, and jalapeño pepper (if using). Cook until the vegetables are soft and fragrant.
- Add the rice to the skillet and stir to coat the rice in the oil and vegetables. Cook for a few minutes until the rice starts to become translucent.
- Stir in the diced tomatoes, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a lid, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
- Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve the Arroz con salsa hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.
- Enjoy!
