This is a recipe I came up with to use up a whole bunch of salsa that I made (see Leah's food processor salsa). My favorite mexican dish is Arroz con pollo, and have a hard time finding any restaurants that make it to my liking. This is a simple and delicious dish. Please note that this recipe uses rice that is already cooked.

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb boneless skinless chicken, cut into 1/2 inch strips
3 tablespoons cooking oil
1/2 lb button mushroom, quartered
1 medium onion, medium diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups salsa, I use medium heat
1 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded
2 cups chicken stock
2 cups cooked rice
salt and pepper
parsley or cilantro, for color
1 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • in a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat then add mushrooms, onion, and garlic. let cook for 2 minutes or so.
  • season chicken with salt, pepper, cumin, and cayenne- add to skillet, cook until chicken is brown on all sides.
  • add salsa and rice stir frequently while the chicken continues to cook.
  • Add chicken broth a little bit at a time, like you're making risotto(you probably won't need the whole amount of chicken broth because the rice is already cooked- the amount you need depends on what kind of salsa and rice you use).
  • When chicken is cooked through and the surrounding rice is creamy, turn off heat and stir in cheese.
  • Top with some chopped cilantro or parsley for a pop of color.

ARROZ CON POLLO (MEXICAN CHICKEN & RICE)



Arroz Con Pollo (Mexican Chicken & Rice) image

This experiment is one that turned out wonderful. It has a marvelous mexican taste without overwhelming the taste buds with heat, like jalapenos would do. I originally came up with this when we had an extra rotisserie chicken that we didn't know what to do with. Don't let the ingredients stop you from cooking this dish. I've made it with rotisserie chicken, boneless/skinless breasts or thighs, and even canned chicken. I've used canned tomatoes, fresh tomatoes, and cherry tomatoes, I've substituted chicken bullion for broth. I've made this with and without bell peppers, The only real thing that remains constant is the rice and the spices. This is a recipe to have fun with.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/4 teaspoon chili powder
3/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1 rotisserie-cooked chicken, stripped, including the skin
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/2 onion
2 garlic cloves
1 green bell pepper
1 red bell pepper
0.5 (4 ounce) can ortega diced chilies (drained)
2 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons mild salsa (subst ( 1/2 4 oz. can Ortega diced chiles)
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes (undrained, subst ( 2 cups cherry tomatoes, cut into halves cup chicken broth)
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1 1/2 cups basmati rice
0.5 (8 ounce) package frozen peas (subst ( 1/2 8 oz pkg frozen peas & carrots)

Steps:

  • prep: Cut chicken into 1-inch chunks. Remove stem and seeds from bell peppers. Finely chop bell peppers, Onion, garlic, and ortega chiles.
  • Use a large, deep pan. Drizzle 1 tbsp olive oil into it, and heat the pan. Please note that spices are put in twice: once with the chicken, and once with the rice, so don't put them away after the first measurement.
  • Place chicken in heated pan. Sprinkle ¼ tsp chili powder, ¾ tsp cumin, and ¼ tsp onion powder over chicken, stirring frequently, until chicken is thoroughly heated.
  • Remove chicken from pan. Add the remaining tbsp of olive oil and the pepper mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, for approximately 6 minutes, until onion is soft and liquid has reduced out and disappeared, I don't use salt/pepper during this step, since there is enough in the rotisserie chicken already.
  • Add the chicken broth, salsa, diced tomatoes, chili powder, and cumin to the pepper mixture. Bring to a boil.
  • Stir in the rice, and put the chicken back in the pan, along with any juices that may have left the chicken. Cover and cook for approximately 10 minutes, stir in the frozen peas and cook for an additional 10 minutes or until rice is tender.

ARROZ CON POLLO WITH A QUESO KICK

i went to a mexican restaurant and ordered fajitas one day. the chicken was a little dry so i drizzled some of the white melting cheese over the top and it tasted amazing. i use the zatarans rice mix and substitute a can of tomato sauce for the diced tomatoes, but either way will work.
