Spanish Rice With Ham

Recipe #186179 | 20 min | 10 min prep | add private note

This is a quick side dish to serve with Mexican entrees. We like spicy, so I usually add some spices to kick it up a notch, but it's good as is. It also freezes well.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    In a large saucepan melt butter over medium heat. Saute green pepper until crisp tender.
  2. 2
    Stir in ham, undrained stewed tomatoes, tomato juice, peas, and water. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in instant rice. Cover and let stand about 5 minutes or until rice is tender.

I did add onions as suggested by a reviewer and left out the green peas. Very tasty! Made for ZWT3.

    Needed onions in my opnion and a little more spice but still very good. We had the rice with breakfast when it was fresh then froze the last of it in 5 single serve portions. I used my Seal-a-Meal and they kept well. I microwaved them 2 1/2 minutes at 30 second intervals and will have these with the girls for lunch this afternoon. Made your recipe as a Spain Freezer Pleaser Challenge for ZWT3. TFS, I'll do these again.

    I used this as my full dinner with brown rice cooked from scratch. I used V8 and 1/2 of a fresh tomato for the canned tomato (I made 2 servings). As did Kit I added onion and some garlic, also a good amount of Southwest seasoning. The ham makes it very tasty and this is a grand quick meal in a bowl. Thanks Lazyme.

    This was good, although I made some changes to this recipe, I felt it needed some onions and garlic sauteed with the green peppers, also I added in 2 jalapeno peppers, and about 1 tablespoons dried chili flakes (we like extreme heat!) all in all we enjoyed this! thanks for sharing hon!...Kitten
