Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Heat oil in a large saucepan with a lid. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until it begins to soften, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic, chili powder, cumin, and oregano and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the rice and stir until the grains are covered with oil.
  2. Add the broth, canned tomates, and green chiles. Bring to a boil and add the corn. Reduce the heat to low and cook, covered, until the rice is tender aboutn 25 minutes. (The rice will take a little longer to cook than usual because of the acid in the tomatoes.).
  3. Season with hot pepper sauce. Transfer to plates or a serving bowl and sprinkle with the cilantro and scallions.
