Quick Skillet Spanish Rice
I love Spanish Rice and came up with this quick skillet recipe one evening. You can vary the spiciness by varying the intensity of the salsa's heat.
Spanish Skillet Rice
2 tsp. olive or canola oil
1/2 medium onion, finely diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp. tumeric
1/2 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. chili powder
2/3 cup white rice
2/3 cup water
1/3 cup salsa (I've sometimes substituted a can of diced tomatoes with the juice instead of water and tomato sauce. The liquid you use in the recipe should be at least twice the amount of the rice.)
1/3 cup tomato sauce.
Saute the onion in the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the garlic and saute for an additional minute.
Add all the remaining ingredients.
Bring back to a boil, then turn down to a simmer and cover. Simmer 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Serve.
Watch the water content. You can add a bit more rice or water, if needed. You can also use brown rice. Be sure to increase your cooking time if you do.
