Cuban-Style Chicken & Rice
Rick M @RickM_PTC
This dish is similar to the classic Cuban dish ... Arroz Con Pollo, but rather the rice (and beans) here are cooked separately. This is a recipe to get you comfortable with the dish before trying it out in a large pot, where the rice is cooked with the chicken in one pot and served family style.

- 1
In a large pan, add the oil and heat over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken to the pan and cook on both sides for a total of 30 minutes.
- 2
Remove the chicken to a plate and add the peppers to the pan and begin to sauté them in a small amount of the chicken fat. As they become soft, add the onions and sauté them as well, until they become translucent in about 2-3 minutes.
- 3
Add in a dash of flour to the pan and mix all the ingredients. Add the tomatoes and the juices to the pan and lightly mix. Continue to heat this mixture while adding the garlic, cumin, bay leaf, and thyme.

Turn the heat down to low-medium; add the chicken back to the pan, add some lime juice, top with cilantro, and cover. Simmer this for 15-20 minutes. When done serve with black beans and rice, some fried plantains, and enjoy.

[Note: For the traditional dish of Arroz Con Pollo, use a Dutch-oven style pot and brown the chicken on both sides, then add yellow or white rice (2 cups.) and chicken stock (3 cups). You then cover and simmer for 30-40 minutes, adding 1 cup of frozen peas near the end for a delicious one-pot family meal.]

Cuban-Style Tomato Rice
This dish was served often for lunch at the Spanish elementary school my husband and I used to go to. The taste brings us back memories. Deep-fried bananas are served instead of wiener sausages in a regular recipe, but our school lunch was served with wiener sausages, so I copied it.Shallow-fry sunny-side up eggs rather than frying them in lots of oil. Oil splatters a lot, so please be careful not to get burnt! I recommend bringing eggs to room temperature in advance. Recipe by Bakaryau

This dish was originaly published as a bean and rice dish only. I had to spin it and add a lil spice. The spices, chicken and garlic were added to give it a kick and a little substance. I have made this for several different occasions and people, everyone raves about it.I have done it with a ground Italian sausage and added more heat by using the (Ro*tel Hot) instead of the mild.I hope you enjoy it as much as my family and friends do.

Chicken and Rice
Hola friends!!! Here’s a little bit of nothing I made that just tastes so good I had to share. Plenty of leftovers to make a nice pot of this golden beauty. This is basic and can be made in any shape form or fashion. Add ons for days. I like peas in mine but today I went bare bones. I roasted the chicken and made the rice yesterday just so I could make this today.
Super Easy Chicken n' Rice
I bought a 10 lb bag of chicken leg quarters once and had to think up a variety of ways to enjoy them without getting bored. This is just my simple version of a comfort food staple. This recipe makes a little additional rice in comparison to other recipes because the rice is my favorite part. The mushrooms are entirely optional, and you can sub cream of mushroom for one of the cans of soup.
