- ½ red pepper
- ½ green pepper
- ¾ cup of frozen peas
- ¼ cup of green olives
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 1 tsp of minced garlic
- Chicken stock
- 4 Roma tomatoes
- Salt
- Pepper
Directions
Heat olive oil in a large skillet on medium to high heat.
Add the rice to the pan to brown.
Take the onion and four tomatoes and blend them in a blender to make a sauce.
Add it to the browned rice and add 1 cup of chicken stock.
Cover the pot, bring it down to low-medium heat and let the rice cook for about 25 minutes until its almost finished.
The rice should still be slightly undercooked.
Before rice is completely cooked, take a large wooden spoon and mix while adding your chicken, green and red peppers, olives and peas.
Add more salt and pepper to taste if necessary and serve.
Buen provecho!
