This colorful confetti rice is a traditional dish in Puerto Rico. We enjoy it in the summer alongside grilled shrimp kabobs, but it is good with most any entree. -Laura Lunardi of West Chester, Pennsylvania Ingredients:
1 small onion, finely chopped |
1 small sweet yellow pepper, finely chopped |
1 small sweet red pepper, finely chopped |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
2 cups water |
1 cup uncooked long grain rice |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, saute the onion, peppers and garlic in oil until crisp-tender. Add the water, rice, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 18-22 minutes or until rice is tender.
2. Remove from the heat; fluff with a fork. Stir in cilantro. Yield: 6 servings.
