A great recipe for Mexican style rice in tomato sauce. This is an excellent side dish for the Slow Cooker Pozole I posted earlier.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons lard or peanut oil
- 1 cup long grain white rice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 roma (plum) tomatoes, seeded and chopped
- 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
- 1 ¼ cups chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons chili powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Heat the lard in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the rice, and stir until rice is toasted. Add the garlic and onion; cook and stir until the onion just begins to brown. Stir in the tomatoes, tomato sauce, chicken broth, chili powder and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20 to 25 minutes, or until rice is tender. Let stand for 5 minutes, covered, before serving.
