Ingredients

  • 1 cup white rice
  • 2 cups low- sodium chicken broth
  • ½ cup tomato sauce
  • 3 tbsp oil
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp chili powder
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • ½ tsp spanish paprika
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • ½ onion chopped

Instructions

  • Add oil to the non-stick pan (recommended). Turn up the heat to medium-high. Add chopped onions and cook for 2-3 minutes or until translucent.
  • Add rice and sauté for 3-4 minutes or until lightly toasted. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant. Add chicken broth, salt, pepper, cumin, paprika, chili, oregano, tomato sauce and stir. Then, bring to a simmer.
  • Reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 15 minutes (rice should be tender, not soggy and liquid should be fully absorbed). Remove the pan from the heat source. Let rest with lid on for another 10 minutes. Remove lid and mix. Season with salt to taste.

Garnish with chopped cilantro. Serve and enjoy!
