Steps:
- Cook the bacon in a large skillet until crisp, about 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- Discard the bacon fat in the skillet.
- Add the onion, red bell pepper, and garlic to the skillet and saute over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the rice, tomato, chicken broth, salt, cayenne and black pepper. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
- Stir in the bacon, parsley, and basil.
