ARROZ CON TOCINO (RICE WITH SALT PORK)



Arroz con Tocino (Rice With Salt Pork) image

In Puerto Rico, rice is typically served at Thanksgiving. Arroz con gandules is standard, and this twist on classic white rice is also a favorite. Salt pork or bacon is sautéed until crisp, replacing the oil and salt that's usually added to white rice and giving this staple a decidedly porky essence. While Puerto Ricans often use a lightweight aluminum pot or caldero for rice dishes, a large, light, nonstick saucepan with a lid is a good replacement. Salt pork can vary in saltiness and funk, so rinse well and pat dry with a clean towel before dicing, and adjust the salt to taste. Do not wash the rice before cooking as it will make the rice retain moisture and become mushy. This quick, easy side dish pairs well with saucy beans, greens and stewed meats any day of the week.

Categories     grains and rice, side dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

5 1/2 ounces salt pork or bacon, chopped into 1/4-inch pieces (about 1 cup)
1 to 2 large garlic cloves, minced
2 cups short grain rice or sushi rice
Salt

Steps:

  • Heat a large saucepan with a lid over medium. Add salt pork or bacon, and cook, stirring often, for 7 to 10 minutes until browned and toasty, and a substantial amount of oil has released. Add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds more until fragrant, then add rice and stir until the rice is evenly coated with fat and starts to turn opaque.
  • Meanwhile, bring 3 cups of water to a boil in a small saucepan or kettle.
  • Add the boiling water to the rice mixture and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer uncovered until liquid has almost completely evaporated and the surface of the rice is dotted with little bubbly volcanoes, about 7 to 10 minutes.
  • When there is no more liquid bubbling up from the holes, reduce heat to low, cover and cook for 17 minutes without stirring. Remove from heat and let rest, covered, for at least 10 minutes. Taste to ensure rice is fully cooked, and let sit for 5 to 10 more minutes with the lid on if needed. Fluff with a fork, season with salt to taste and serve.

MARY ANN'S PORK CHOPS AND SPANISH RICE



Mary Ann's Pork Chops and Spanish Rice image

Another one of my favorite recipes of my mom's. This is a great one dish meal that is inexpensive and easy to prepare. Most of my mom's cooking is done by taste and not by measurement, so adjustments should be made according to your own preferences. Enjoy!

Provided by FCR Gal

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 -6 pork chops (we generally use bone-in chops)
1/2-1 cup rice (depending on number of chops & people)
1/4 cup chopped green pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 (16 ounce) can chopped tomatoes (which ever you use I would puree in the food processor) or 1 (16 ounce) can Rotel Tomatoes (which ever you use I would puree in the food processor)
salt (to taste)
pepper (to taste)
water

Steps:

  • Add water to tomatoes to equal approximately double than the amount of rice that you are making.
  • Combine rice, green pepper, onion, tomatoes and water in 13X9 pan.
  • Lay pork chops on top.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cover with foil and bake at 350 for about 45 minutes then uncover for 10 to 15 minutes until chops are browned and rice is soft.

Tips:

  • Choose a lean pork loin roast for a healthier option. You can also use a pork shoulder roast, but it will be fattier.
  • If you don't have Spanish rice seasoning, you can make your own by combining 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  • For a more flavorful rice, use chicken broth or vegetable broth instead of water.
  • If you want a crispy pork roast, sear it in a hot skillet before placing it in the slow cooker.
  • Let the pork roast rest for 10 minutes before slicing it. This will help the juices redistribute and make the meat more tender.

Conclusion:

This Double-Duty Pork with Spanish Rice recipe is a delicious and easy way to feed your family a hearty and satisfying meal. The pork roast is cooked to perfection in the slow cooker, and the Spanish rice is a flavorful and colorful side dish. This recipe is sure to become a family favorite.
