Authentic Mexican Rice

Step 1

In a deep skillet over medium heat, add oil to pan and let oil get hot - about 3 minutes.

Step 2

Once oil is hot, add dry uncooked rice and onion. Stir constantly until rice begins to turn golden and onion is cooked.

Step 3

Add garlic and cook for another 1 minute stirring frequently so garlic doesn't burn.

Step 4

Pour in chicken broth to rice mixture.

Step 5

Add tomato sauce, salt and pepper. Thoroughly mix.

Step 6

Bring mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally so rice doesn't stick to bottom.

Step 7

Once mixture comes to a boil, reduce to low heat, put lid on pan and cook for 20 minutes until rice is done and liquids have been absorbed.

Step 8

Serve Immediately.
