Para Morirse Para ... Mexican Rice With My Twist
- 2 12 cups cooked white rice
- 1 (4 ounce) can green chilies
- 1 cup onion, diced fine
- 12 cup black olives, cut in half
- 1 (15 ounce) can Mexican-style diced tomatoes (you can also substitute plain diced potatoes if that is all you are able to find)
- 12 cup chicken stock
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 14 teaspoon red pepper flakes, to taste
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup mexican cheese, shredded (or Monterey Jack cheese)
- Rice -- Cook the rice accordingly to pkg directions.
- I cook mine ahead just to save time, but it is not necessary.
- You can use long grain, medium, quick cooking or boil in bags.
- Whatever works best for you.
- Make it easy on yourself.
- Vegetables -- To a medium saute pan, add the olive oil and heat to medium.
- Then add in the garlic and onion and cook until tender.
- Toss in the olives, chilies, tomatoes, broth, seasoning except for the parsley; and cook on medium low until well combined.
- Cook 5 minutes.
- Combine -- Add the rice to the tomato and vegetable mixture just to reheat the rice and all the flavors are combined.
- Cook another 2-3 minutes.
- The last minute add the parsley.
- Serve -- Serve family style and top with the grated cheese.
- You can also add some extra parsley if you want as a garnish.
- ENJOY!
