Chicken and Rice - Arroz Con Pollo

Recipe #291691 | 35 min | SERVES 4 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Carrlin

This is from the Goya website. I tried it out and it was really good. I just made some modifications. The original recipe called for 4 lbs of chicken. I use much less chicken and more rice.
