How to Make How to Make Arroz Rojo

1. Rinse rice until water runs clear, then drain and set aside to dry.

2. In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat, then add rice and stir to combine. Cook rice until it turns a light golden-brown, stirring often, about 10 minutes.

3. In a blender, add garlic, tomatoes, onion, chicken stock, and salt. Blend all together.

4. Add 3 cups of the blended mixture into the rice and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, cover with a lid, and reduce heat to low. Cook for about 20 minutes or until all the liquid has been absorbed.

5. Remove from heat and let it rest for about 5 minutes before fluffing the rice with a fork. Serve as a side dish and enjoy!
