Description

Packed with fresh flavors, this rice makes for a perfect side—or even a meal on its own!

Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil
  • 1-½ cup Basmati Or Long Grain Rice
  • ½  Spanish Onion, Diced
  • 2 cups Diced Tomatoes
  • 1 cup Baked Ham, Diced
  • ½  Green Bell Pepper, Diced
  • 1-½ cup Chicken Broth
  • 1 Tablespoon Cumin
  • Sea Salt And Ground Black Pepper To Taste
  • Chopped Fresh Basil For Garnish

Preparation

Prep ingredients and set aside.

In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add the rice, onions, tomatoes, ham, and peppers, and cook (stirring occasionally) for approximately 5–10 minutes, or until the rice is golden brown. Add the rest of the ingredients to the saucepan and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let everything simmer for approximately 30 minutes (again, stirring occasionally) until the rice is tender.

Serve as a side, or eat it on its own!

Hi Donna, of course you could add peas, corn, or any other vegetable you see fit without affecting the recipe much. I find that the distinct taste of Spanish Rice comes from the tomatoes and the ham, so do your thang! :)

This looks really good! I think I’ve ate Spanish Rice that it had peas and corn in it. Couldn’t I add them to the recipe and it wouldn’t affect the recipe? Thanks Donna
