Cheyenne
Mexican Rice
Ingredients
1 ½ tbsp oil
1 ½ cup white rice*
8 oz. tomato sauce
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp cumin powder
1 tbsp knorr tomato bouillon
2 cups chicken broth
¾ cup water
Directions
Pour oil into a pan. Make sure it’s a pan that has a lid. Add in the rice. I usually use basmati rice because it’s what we keep on hand. Roast for about 3 minutes, or until some of the rice begins to brown
Once your rice has browned, pour in the tomato sauce and add all your seasoning; onion, garlic, and cumin powder, as well as your tomato bouillon. Give it all a good mix and just let it cook for about a minute
Now pour in your chicken broth and water. Allow everything to come to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat. Leave it alone for 20 minutes. Do not lift the lid and stir in between. Leave. It. Alone!
After 20 minutes use a fork to fluff your rice, and garlic with cilantro if you like
