Spanish Rice

Spanish Rice
I've always been afraid to make this on my own and bought the ready to make box. But I finally gave it a try and this recipe is delish!

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 cup uncooked white rice
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chiles
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder, or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Saute garlic, onion, and bell pepper until tender, add rice and cook until rice is browned.
  2. Stir in broth and tomatoes. Season with chili powder, cumen and salt. Cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, or until rice is cooked and liquid is absorbed.
