How To Make mexican rice
-
1In a sauce pan, preheat the vegetable oil and add the rice.
-
2On medium heat, Stir the rice continuously until it becomes the color of toast. This step will take about 10 minutes. Have patience - this is the secret step.
-
3Once the rice is toasted, add the onion salt and stir. Add the tomato sauce and stir.
-
4Add the can of chicken broth and stir. Put the lid on the pan, simmer for 10 minutes. Once the lid goes on leave it alone.
-
5After 10 minutes, add the frozen veggies - do not stir. Replace the lid and simmer for five more minutes. The frozen veggies are optional. I normally use frozen peas and carrots.
-
6Don't stir until ready to serve.
