I have tried many recipes trying to duplicate the dry Mexican rice you get at the restaurant. After a lot of tweaking this hits the mark. My hubby loved it and said this is the real deal. Hope you enjoy it!

  • olive oil2 -3 tablespoons
  • onion1⁄2 cup
  • small jalapeno1

    diced (from a jar)

  • garlic clove1

  • salsa1⁄2 cup

    pureed

  • chicken broth1 cup

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Heat olive oil in a sauce pan. Add rice and fry for about five minutes. Stir occasionally so it doesn't stick. Add onion, garlic, and jalapeno and cook until onion is tender.

  2. 2

    Add chicken broth and salsa. Bring to a boil. Once it boils, turn heat down to low and cook for 20 minutes. Do not lift lid while cooking!

  3. 3

    When done cooking, remove from heat and fluff with fork. Enjoy!
