Steps:
- If using fresh tomatoes, drain them in a sieve or colander set over a bowl to catch their juices; set juices aside.
- In a large Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until it is beginning to crisp; with a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to paper towels to drain.
- Return Dutch oven of drippings to the stove; add the onion, bell pepper, and celery; saute until softened, about 10 minutes (add a little oil if the bacon fat seems insufficient).
- Add the jalapeno, poblano, tomatoes, bay leaves, and thyme to the pot; season with salt and pepper to taste; simmer for about 10 minutes, until the peppers have softened.
- Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, combine the broth with a scant 1/4 cup of the reserved tomato juices (discard any remaining juice) and add salt to taste.
- Bring to a simmer; add the rice, return to a simmer, and stir a few times.
- Decrease heat to the lowest setting, cover, and cook until the rice is tender, about 16 minutes.
- Add the rice to the vegetable mixture, along with the bacon; taste for seasonings.
- Stir in the scallions, basil, and a big squeeze of lemon; serve immediately.

[email protected]I'm not a huge fan of bell peppers, but they actually worked really well in this dish. The sweetness of the peppers balanced out the spiciness of the cayenne pepper.
