Ingredients
Cooking Oil (Vegetable, Canola, or even Olive Oil will do)
2-2.5 lbs of Chicken
4 Cups of Rice
Adobo, salt, and pepper to taste
1 cube of chicken broth (optional)
1/2 cup of sofrito
2 tsp of sazon
1/4 cup tomato sauce
1/2 cup olives (optional)
1 tsp oregano
1 tbsp of achiote (annatto seed) oil
Instructions
Cut chicken into small, 1 inch pieces
Fry sofrito
Add chicken
While chicken is cooking, rinse the rice
After chicken is browned, add water
Add the rest of the ingredients and stir.
Ensure there’s around 3/4 of an inch of water covering the rice, if not, the rice will be too dry.
Let it cook, uncovered for 15 minutes, in medium-low heat or until the water is absorbed by the rice
Once this happens, stir, and cover. Allow the rice to cook for 15-20 minutes in medium-low heat until the rice is tender.
Enjoy!
