From "What's For Dinner?". This is one of my favorite "mexican style" rice dishes. I often serve this as a side to tacos or enchiladas. Easy and tasty.

This rice was so good! I used basmati rice and it turned out perfectly. The color was beautiful and the flavor was amazing. I will definitely be making this again.
