    In a medium (preferably nonstick) pot with a tight fitting lid, heat the oil over medium heat. Once it's hot, add the onion. Cook, stirring frequently, until it starts to soften...3-5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook just until fragrant, about a minute more.

  2. 2

    Increase the heat to high and add the rice, cumin, smoked paprika, coriander and chili powder. Stir the rice around fairly often. Once it starts to look lightly toasted, go ahead and add the broth and let it come to a boil.

  3. 3

    Once at a boil, reduce the temp to low heat and place the lid on. Let it simmer, undisturbed, for 15 minutes. Then turn the heat off, but keep the lid on another couple of minutes.

  4. 4

    Add the salt, pepper and salsa to the rice. Fluff it with a fork and serve.

I love to bake and to try out new recipes! I'm always on the lookout for simple dinners for busy weeknights. A lot of the recipes I post on here are ones I've found on Pinterest or from different bloggers, and that I've tried and really enjoyed, but I always reference to where I got the recipe from in the recipe description and the pictures are my own. If there's no source listed, then it's a rare recipe that I came up with. I have two wonderful kids and I hope to pass on my love of cooking and baking to them.
