SOPA DE ARROZ CON POLLO RECIPE - (4.2/5)



Sopa de Arroz con Pollo Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by garciamoss

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 onion
1/2 red bell pepper
1/4 cup cilantro
2 crushed garlic cloves
enough water to puree all the ingredients
1-1/2 lbs of chicken on the bone (I prefer thighs) seasoned with 2 packets Sazón Goya.
1/2 cup rice

Steps:

  • Puree onion, red bell pepper, cilantro and garlic cloves in blender. Put the seasoned chicken and the puree in a stockpot over medium-high heat and allow it to cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will allow the flavors from the pureed veggies to infuse the chicken before adding all the water for the soup. After about 10 minutes, add enough water to totally submerge the chicken, about 6 cups, add some chopped potatoes and carrots, season with salt & pepper, and 1 bay leaf. Bring it all to a boil, then lower temperature to allow it to simmer and cook for about 20-30 minutes or until the chicken is tender. Remove the chicken from the broth and add 1/2 cup of rice to it, allow it cook while the chicken cools enough to remove the bones. Make sure to stir the broth every few minutes, making sure to remove any rice that may stick to the bottom. In the meantime, chop the chicken, if you'd like and return it to the broth. Cook just long enough for the rice to soften. Serve in bowls and enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your arroz con pollo taste its best. Look for plump, juicy chicken breasts, ripe tomatoes, and colorful bell peppers.
  • Don't skip the sofrito: This essential flavor base adds depth and richness to the dish. Be sure to sauté the vegetables until they are soft and fragrant.
  • Use a good quality rice: A medium-grain rice, such as Valencia or Calrose, is best for arroz con pollo. It will absorb the flavorful broth and cook up tender and fluffy.
  • Cook the rice in broth: Using broth instead of water will give the rice more flavor. You can use chicken broth, vegetable broth, or a combination of both.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts can dry out quickly, so it's important to cook them just until they are cooked through. Overcooked chicken will be tough and chewy.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: A sprinkling of fresh cilantro or parsley adds a pop of color and flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

Arroz con pollo is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it's also a budget-friendly meal. With its bold flavors and colorful ingredients, arroz con pollo is sure to be a hit at your next party or potluck.
