This is a great, easy way to make a delicious side dish when cooking Mexican for dinner. My kids really love it, too. Substitutions for spices and vegetables are fine -- add the tastes that your family likes most. You can make this on the stovetop in a skillet with a lid, as well. Bring all ingredients to a boil and stir well; cover and simmer for 25 minutes or until rice is soft. If you add some of the optional ingredients, this can be an excellent main dish. Try adding chopped green chile peppers. Tastes great with the Enchilada II recipe.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the rice will taste. Choose high-quality rice, such as Spanish Bomba or Basmati rice. Also, use fresh vegetables and herbs.
  • Rinse the rice: Rinsing the rice before cooking removes excess starch, which helps prevent the rice from becoming sticky.
  • Use the right amount of liquid: The amount of liquid you use will depend on the type of rice you are cooking. For Spanish rice, a good rule of thumb is to use 2 cups of liquid for every 1 cup of rice.
  • Cook the rice over low heat: Cooking the rice over low heat helps it to cook evenly and prevents it from burning.
  • Don't lift the lid while the rice is cooking: Lifting the lid while the rice is cooking will release steam, which can cause the rice to cook unevenly.
  • Let the rice rest before serving: Letting the rice rest for a few minutes before serving allows it to absorb all of the flavors.

Conclusion:

Spanish rice is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a main course or a side dish. It is easy to make and can be cooked in a rice cooker or on the stovetop. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect Spanish rice every time.
