AUTHENTIC SPANISH RICE - AN OLD FASHIONED SPANISH RICE RECIPE



Authentic Spanish Rice - An Old Fashioned Spanish Rice Recipe image

Authentic Spanish Rice may be traditional but it's also simple with just a handful of ingredients including long-grain white rice, water, chicken broth, tomato sauce and Rotel canned tomatoes. With a lot of stirring and a little patience, you too will master this easy side dish.

Provided by Barbara

Categories     Side Dish

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons lard or butter
2 cups long grain white rice
1 cup water
1 cup chicken (or vegetable broth)
8 ounces canned tomato sauce
10 ounces Rotel (canned tomatoes with chiles), drained

Steps:

  • Melt lard in a large skillet; add rice and cook, stirring constantly until lightly browned. Do not burn.
  • Once browned, add water and bring to a boil.
  • Once the water has mostly absorbed, add broth and cover over low heat.
  • Let simmer and cook for approximately 20 minutes. Stir often so that a crust doesn't form. If it does, do not scrape it.
  • Once the rice is fluffy, add drained Rotel (keep the juice) and tomato sauce. Stir.
  • If the rice isn't perfectly fluffy, add the reserved Rotel liquids, turn off heat and cover until the rice steams to perfection.
