ARROZ CON POLLO

Steps:

• Pat the chicken dry with paper towels then season with salt on both sides.
• Brown the chicken on both sides in a deep pan or skillet. Remove and set aside.
• Fry the onino and pepper until soft then add the garlic. Cook for another 30 seconds.
• Add the spices and tomato paste and cook until the pan becomes dry.
• Add the rice and stock. Season with salt and pepper.
• Place the chicken on top then cover and reduce the heat. Allow to simmer for 10 minutes.
• Add the frozen peas then simmer for another 10-15 minutes until the rice and chicken are cooked. At this point you can place the whole dish in a hot oven to cook for the remaining 10-15 minutes to ensure the chicken skin crisps up.
• Finish the dish by garnishing with chopped parsley and lemon wedges before serving.

Steps:

• Mix together the Adobo seasoning in a small bowl.
• Cut the onion, peppers, and garlic into a small dice and set aside.
• Trim the chicken of any excess fat and season with Adobo seasoning.
• Heat the olive oil and the chili oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until very hot. Season the chicken with Adobo. Save the leftovers in an airtight container.
• Place the chicken skin side down in the oil and saute until golden brown.
• Remove chicken to plate.
• Stir in sofrito and saute for 4-5 minutes. Add rice, chicken stock and beer and stir well.
• Add chicken chicken back into pot and stir well.
• Cover the pot and turn heat to low and simmer until the liquid is almost absorbed, about about 10 - 15 minutes (or according to the package direction for your rice - minus 5 mninuts). Add peas and continue to simmer unil peas are warmed (about 5 minutes). After rice is cooked and the peas are warm add the olives and stir well.
• Garnish with cilantro and serve with hot sauce and corn or flour tortillas on the side.

ARROZ CON POLLO

Steps:

• Rinse the rice well in a mesh colander, then shake to drain. Let the rice continue draining over the sink while you blend together the cooking liquid.
• In a blender, combine the roma tomatoes, garlic, onion, and 1 1/2 cups of water.
• Blend till the mixture is smooth. Pour the tomato mixture through another mesh colander or sieve into a large bowl, pushing the solids to extract as much flavored juice as possible.
• Reserve the juice and discard the solids.
• Heat up 2 tbsp of oil in a nonstick pot over medium high heat. Add the rice to the pot. Saute the rice, stirring almost constantly, for 10-15 minutes till the grains of rice start to turn golden. Be careful-- when they begin to turn golden, they can easily go to brown/burned if you don't watch them carefully.
• Measure the reserved tomato liquid into the pot by cupfuls. You will need 6 cups of liquid total. First measure the tomato liquid and pour into the pot (there will be about 3 cups). Once you know how much tomato liquid there is, you can measure out the remaining amount of liquid needed-- in our case, we needed 3 more cups. Add that amount of water to the pot to make 6 cups of liquid total.
• Stir in the diced carrots, corn, and peas along with 1 tsp of salt.
• Sprinkle the chicken pieces with salt (skip salting the chicken if you're using kosher meat) and chili powder. You can use up to six pieces of chicken in one pot. We took the skin off of our chicken before cooking to make the dish a bit lighter. You can leave the skin on if you prefer, which will add more flavor to the dish.
• Place the chicken pieces on top of the rice and vegetables, covered in the tomato liquid. Bring the mixture to a slow boil.
• Reduce heat to a slow, even simmer over medium low heat and cover the pot. Let the mixture simmer for 1 hour till all the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender. Check at 30 minutes to see if the pot looks too dry. Add additional liquid as needed, and additional salt to taste, if desired. We ended up adding another 1 cup of water to the pot after 30 minutes-- the liquid absorbs pretty quickly into the rice. Check the rice again for dryness at 45 minutes. When all of the liquid has absorbed and the rice, vegetables, and chicken are tender, remove from heat.
• Serve the chicken over the rice, garnished with chopped cilantro if desired. I decided to debone the chicken and cut it into pieces before serving for a prettier presentation. You can serve it on the bone if you like. The rice will be quite soft-- this is the correct texture for this dish. It all comes together in a very warm, cozy, filling one-pot meal. It's simple, homey, healthy Mexican comfort food.

Stir in the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until it begins to caramelize, 3 to 4 minutes.

Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and nestle the chicken thighs skin side up in the rice. (Try not to submerge the skin, so it stays crisp as the rice cooks.) Cook, partially covered, until the rice has absorbed the liquid and the chicken is cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. If the chicken skin is not crisp, place the pan under a hot broiler until the chicken is crispy and golden brown on top.
