To get started with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can have spanish rice using 6 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make Spanish Rice:
- Prepare 2 Cups uncooked white rice
- Take 2 Cups chicken broth
- Make ready 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Prepare 2-14.5 oz. cans stewed or diced tomatoes
- Prepare 1/4 large onion diced

Saute rice and onions: Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and melt butter. The terms "Spanish rice" and "Mexican Rice" are often used interchangeably and include some combination of tomatoes, onion, chicken bouillon (consomé), and other spices. True "Spanish" rice (like paella) from Spain would include saffron, but we'll put aside the semantics for this delicious dish. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, heat oil.
Steps to make Spanish Rice:
- Place oil in pan and heat. I use an 8 qt. kettle or 3 qt. skillet. (You will need a lid)
- Brown rice well in pan while stirring. After the rice has browned, stir in your diced onion and garlic. Saute for a minute.
- Add 1 can of tomatoes and all of chicken broth to rice. Stir. Cover. Let simmer for 20 minutes.
- Uncover and stir in 2nd can of tomatoes while rice is still hot.
- Season to your liking with salt and pepper. Rice should be firm, but not dry.
- OPTIONAL: I like to add one 14oz can of black beans at the very last that have been rinsed with warm water.
