Spanish rice is good by itself as a side dish or for stuffing peppers and tomatoes. When peppers are in season, or on sale, I stuff them, put them in the crock pot and dinner is solved easily. I've found that using sausage instead of beef adds even more flavor.
Spanish Rice
1 cup white rice
2 beef bouillon cubes
1 lb. ground browned meat (hamburger is traditional, sausage has more kick, especially chorizo)
1/2 onion (red or white), chopped
1/4 bell peppers (red or green), chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
Peppers in the slow cooker. |
2 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. paprika
1 T. cilantro
salt and pepper
6-8 grape tomatoes or 4 regular diced
Preparation:
In measuring cup bring 2 cups water and 2 beef bouillon cubes to boil (about 2 1/2 - 3 minutes in microwave).
In medium saucepan, add water to 1 cup rice. Bring to boil. Reduce heat and cover. Simmer 15 minutes.
Brown meat while rice is cooking, adding chopped peppers and onions. After meat has started to brown add garlic. Drain fat; add spices and tomatoes. Remove rice from heat and let stand 5 minutes.
Combine rice and meat mixture. Serves 6.
