Time 50m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups white rice (short grain)
1 (15 ounce) can pigeon peas
1 (5 g) packet sazon goya
4 ounces tomato sauce
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon
2 tablespoons sofrito sauce
2 cups water
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons adobo seasoning

Steps:

  • Pour olive oil in a cast iron/aluminum pot until hot.
  • Bring the temp up to med-high and pour in water, bullion, tomato sauce, sofrito, adobo, and sazon until it comes to a boil.
  • Pour in pigeon peas (gandules) and let boil for a minute.
  • Pour in rice.
  • Stir ONCE and put the lid on it, sealing tightly.
  • Let sit for 20 minutes on low-medium.
  • If the rice looks gummy DO NOT STIR IT, just put the lid back on and wait until the rice is firm (ready).
  • If you desire the crunchiness on the bottom, once the rice is done cooking, put the temp on very low temp and let it sit for about 5 minutes. The bottom will loosen up from the moisture (since it it's done cooking).
