Arroz Con Gandules / Rice with Pigeon Peas

:chef buen provecho

My type of comfort food :-)

Traditional Puerto Rican rice. Popular during Christmas but great any time. This pic happened to be with Garbanzos.

You can add an 8 oz can of tomato sauce. If you do, use 8 oz less water.

My mother in law is Panamañian & taught me this dish. It is one of the more traditional dishes made in Panama. I have learned the simpler version. They use real coconut & fresh beans. My husband & son love this dish. I'm glad that I can bring my husbands dishes to our kitchen.

smily arroz con guandulas

Perfect with a crispy side salad :-)

So good even the baby loves it!! The serving size may be a little off, i just went by the rice package.. 3 cups rice makes 12 servings but it probably made about 10 (we make big plates lol)

This is a especial panamanian dish that it is very popular in many festivities and christmas.

Takes about 2 hours to prepareWorth the wait!!!

This recipe was provided to me by Shinae several years ago. It's a simple recipe that packs some serious flavor. Although I don't cook this dish often it's always loved by my family when I make it. This is a simple two pot meal that may take you just over an hour to prepare and cook, but it's well worth it.

This is a quick one with less ingredients. Not the original ,but dam near close. And its still from stratch

Try it out and let me know what you think :)

Theres a woman run latino restaurant near me thats run by woman. Im sorry, but the latino ladies always seem to make the best food. Needless to say, they make an incredible Arroz con Pollo, and I asked for the recipe. They wouldnt give me everything, nor would they give me the amounts, so I did my best. Turned out delicious in my opinion. I hope you try this and enjoy it as much as I did.

Very inexpensive dish to make yet so delicious!! Grest with a side of Amarillos or Plátanos Maduros (sweet plantain) and a nice slice of avocado. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!

I was looking for a simple Arroz con dulce recipe because it was Christmas and I wanted to feel like back in PR. I really enjoyed this it didn't last long...

Delicious...

Arroz Con Pollo is made in one pan (or pot) and can be served family style. It is a traditional dish of Latin America that has many variations determined by countries of origin; such as Cuba, Puerto Rico to name a few. It’s easy to prepare and one that the whole family will enjoy.

This is a Cuban delicacy, it’s a common food we make as dinner and delicious. Children and elderly people love it because it’s kinda mushy/ wet but not overly wet.

Sopa de Arroz is a staple in Mexican food. As simple as the food is, it seems to be the most difficult make or perfect. Took me a while. This is simple rice to accompany lots of dishes from enchiladas to Chile rellenos, to caldo de pollo. Almost universal!

So delicious, a quick full meal!!:-)

Our dinner

Very delicious and wonderful, I recommend you try it. It's easy to prepare.
