My rice didn't turn out so hot. It was mushy (maybe my fault) but my real issue was it was the brightest neon orange color - it looked like it would glow in the dark - not visually appealing at all. However, DH's father is from Mexico and he threw it in a skillet and fried it until it had a dark, crisp crust - like a rice patty. The flavor was good and we ate most of it but I don't know if I will try this one again. Sorry.

    Everyone in my family loved it! My dad asks for it and he never has any cravings!I added garlic and a little saffron. Sometime I add a carrot too for the kids.

    Easy and YUMMY! This is an excellent recipe. We used chopped green chiles instead of green peppers. Everything else was left the same. Thanks!

    This is a great recipe and very easy to put together. I only put in 1 tsp. of salt and I simmered it slowly for close to an hour. It is a wonderful addition to my cookbook.
