Very, very good! Simple and full of flavor. I didn't have fresh tomatoes so I used a can of fire roasted diced tomatoes which were great. I also used brown rice and increased the broth to about 2 and 1/4 cup. It took the brown rice about about 35 minutes to cook. Delicious! Made for ZWT.

This was great and so easy to make. I used rotel tomatoes and it kicked it up a bit. Next time think I'll stick with the recipe! Served with Lime-Soaked, Cumin-Crusted Skirt Steak. Thanks for sharing!

This is delicious rice! The tomatoes and onion and brith add flavor but the rice still shines. I'll make this often and next time may add some nice fresh herbs.

I love this rice recipe. Lots of flavor but it did not overwhelm the main dish. The rice came out very tender. I'm keeping this recipe on hand for an easy weeknight side. Made for ZWT 4 by a fellow Jefe de la Cocina!
