ARROZ CON GANDULES RECIPE BY TASTY



Arroz Con Gandules Recipe by Tasty image

A traditional Puerto Rican dish, arroz con gandules is rice cooked with green pigeon peas. This orange-hued dish is full of flavor from the herby, peppery sofrito and pairs nicely with stewed chicken, pork, or red beans. Don't worry if the bottom layer burns a bit as you finish cooking the rice--this crispy layer is called pegao and is one of the best parts of the dish!

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

½ small bunch fresh cilantro
½ small bunch culantro
¼ white onion, roughly chopped
¼ red bell pepper, roughly chopped
¼ green bell pepper, roughly chopped
4 cloves garlic
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ cup canola oil
10 pimento-stuffed spanish olives, thinly sliced into rounds
1 tomato sauce
2 teaspoons dried adobo seasoning
2 packets Sazón with culantro and achiote seasoning
1 can pigeon peas, drained
3 cups water
3 ⅓ cups medium grain white rice

Steps:

  • To the bowl of a food processor, add the cilantro, culantro, onion, red and green bell peppers and garlic. Pulse until combined. Add the cumin and oregano and pulse a few more times to incorporate. The sofrito should have the consistency of a tapenade.
  • Heat ¼ cup of canola oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the sofrito and fry, stirring constantly, until deepened in color but not brown, about 3 minutes. Add the olives, tomato sauce, adobo seasoning, Sazón seasoning, pigeon peas, and water, and stir to combine.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then add the rice. Cook for 15-20 minutes, until the liquid is fully evaporated and the rice around the edges of the pot looks dry.
  • Stir, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook the rice for another 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until the rice is tender and fluffy.
  • Serve the arroz con gandules warm alongside dishes of your choice.
  • Enjoy!

Categories     main-dish

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

3 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra to drizzle on steaks
Two 16-ounce New York strip steaks (1/2 a steak per serving)
4 tablespoons Aaron's Adobo, recipe follows
2 poblano chiles, roasted, peeled and seeded, thinly sliced
1 jalapeno chile, roasted, peeled and seeded, thinly sliced
1 white onion, thinly sliced
1 medium shallot, thinly sliced
1/2 cup nopales, grilled for 5 minutes on each side and sliced
Epazote Butter, recipe follows
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup cumin seeds
1/4 cup coriander seeds
1/4 cup fennel seeds
1/4 cup yellow mustard seeds
2 ancho chiles, stemmed, seeded, deveined and torn into small pieces
2 pasilla chiles, stemmed, seeded, deveined and torn into small pieces
1/2 cup dried whole oregano (preferably Mexican)
1/4 cup Spanish paprika (pimenton), preferably sweet or hot
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons onion powder
1 bunch epazote leaves, picked (about 2 cups)
1 bunch fresh cilantro, roughly chopped (about 1 cup)
1 clove garlic
Juice of 1 lime
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 pound butter, softened

Steps:

  • Drizzle a little olive on each steak and sprinkle 1 tablespoon Aaron's Adobo on each side of the steaks. Allow to rest.
  • Meanwhile, using a saute pan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil, the roasted poblano and jalapeno chiles and onion. Cook for 5 minutes, until the onion is translucent. Remove and cool.
  • Then, in a large saute pan, add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and the shallots. Cook softly over medium heat until translucent, about 5 minutes. Then add the chile-onion mixture and cook for another 5 minutes. Then add the nopales. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper and set aside.
  • On a hot grill, cook the steak for 7 to 8 minutes on each side until medium-rare and remove from the grill. Allow to rest for 5 minutes, then slice into 1-inch pieces. Divide the chile-onion mixture onto 4 plates and top with the sliced steak. Next, top with some Epazote Butter, however much you'd like, and put the plate under a broiler just for a few seconds, long enough for the butter to melt. Good to go. Serve and enjoy!
  • Heat a dry skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in the cumin, coriander, fennel and mustard seeds along with the pieces of ancho and pasilla chiles. Toast, stirring constantly, until it's very aromatic and just begins to smoke, about 3 minutes.
  • Dump the mixture onto a plate and let it cool to room temperature. Grind it to a fine powder in a spice grinder or clean coffee grinder.
  • Put the powder in a large bowl and add the oregano, paprika, garlic powder and onion powder. Stir them really well to combine.
  • Store the adobo in an airtight container or resealable plastic bag in a cool, dark place for up to a month.
  • In a blender, puree the epazote, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, salt and pepper with 1/2 cup water. Then take herb puree and mix well with softened butter until a green butter occurs. Once mixed, you can wrap in parchment paper and freeze. It keeps for up to a month.

The seeds are available whole and can often be purchased in a block or paste form at Latin American section of your supermarkets. Annatto was once used to control fevers, dysentery and kidney diseases, though is now used mostly as a dye in medical preparations such as ointments and plasters.
