Saturday Share Recipe: Tex-Mex Rice
In Texas, what most people call Mexican food is what we call Tex-Mex because it’s not traditional Mexican fare. It’s the best of both worlds, and it’s what we eat quite often.
When we go Don Ramon or Papasito, I like the rice best of all.
It has a wonderful aroma and subtle spicy flavor, It’s good by itself or mixed with fajita meat or charro beans.
Even better, combine fajita meat, charro beans, and rice in a tortilla. Roll it up and you’ll have a quick meal that will excite your taste buds.
If you have any leftover rice, make a casserole with ground beef, Rotel tomatoes, sour cream, and shredded cheddar cheese. (If you want that recipe, leave a comment and I’ll publish it next Saturday.)
MI CASA RICE
Ingredients
1/4 cup olive oil
2 cups long grain rice
1 small to medium onion, diced
1/2 green bell pepper, diced
1 medium to large tomato, diced
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/2 teaspooon cumin
1/2 teaspoon chile powder
1 8-ounce can tomato sauce
1 teaspoon salt
5 cups chicken broth
Instructions
1. Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. (Use a pan with a lid because you’ll cover it later.)
2. Add rice and stir until the kernels are golden brown.
3. Add onion, bell pepper, and tomato. Saute until onion looks clear.
4. Stir in tomato sauce, broth, garlic powder, cumin, chile powder, and salt. Mix well.
5. Bring to a full boil, reduce heat to low, and cover with lid.
6. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed. (Every stove has a different simmer heat level so it may take less time or more time for the liquid to be absorbed and the rice to be done and fluffy, but not gummy.)
