Honduran Arroz Con Pollo Recipes

ARROZ CON POLLO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat vegetable oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat; cook and stir chicken pieces until browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove chicken with a slotted spoon and place on a plate. Cook and stir onion, green bell pepper, minced garlic, and whole garlic cloves in the same Dutch oven until onion is softened, about 5 minutes.
• Return chicken to the onion mixture. Add tomatoes, rice, salt, oregano, black pepper, and bay leaf. Pour in enough chicken stock to cover all the ingredients.
• Bake chicken-rice mixture in the preheated oven until rice is tender and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 1 hour and 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Stir peas, olives, raisins, and pimento peppers into the chicken-rice mixture. Bake until warmed through, an additional 15 minutes.

SPANISH CHICKEN AND RICE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Start by patting the chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt, pepper, and minced garlic .
• In a large and heavy frying pan or skillet, heat the olive oil until very hot (but not smoking). Sear the chicken pieces on each side, allowing them to brown. Reserve the par-cooked chicken on a dish.
• To the same pan, add the diced tomato, onion and pepper and sauté in olive oil (add another tablespoon if necessary). When the onion is translucent (about 8 minutes), add the rice and paprika, and sauté for about one minute, stirring constantly and making sure to coat all of the grains with oil.
• Add the chicken broth and turmeric, if desired. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat.
• Add back the chicken pieces and simmer, covered, for about 15 minutes until the rice is cooked and almost all liquid has disappeared.
• Uncover and turn up the heat, until the rice has absorbed all of the liquid and you hear that the bottom of the rice is starting to crisp.
• Remove from the heat and let the rice rest for about five minutes. Then stir the dish and serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

AUTHENTIC HONDURAN ARROZ CON LECHE RECIPE

Steps:

• Before you begin gathering your ingredients, wash the rice that you will be using thoroughly with water. In a big cooking pot, bring the water to a boil.
• Add the rice, sugar, and cinnamon sticks to the boiling water and let it cook for approximately 30 minutes. Once the rice is fully cooked, add in the milk and the sweetened condensed milk. #spoontip: if you'd like a thicker consistency, drain the rice before adding the milk.
• Cover the pot with its lid and let it cook for about 10 more minutes. Stir occasionally so that the rice does not clump together.
• Serve and enjoy hot or cold, you choose! Sprinkle ground cinnamon on top for more flavoring.

ARROZ CON POLLO

Steps:

• 1. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. In a large straight-sided skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until rippling. Sear the chicken thighs, turning once, until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• 2. Drain half the oil from the pan and return the pan to the heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, piquillos, garlic, tomatoes, Espelette, and bay leaves and cook, stirring, until the onion begins to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until it begins to caramelize, 3 to 4 minutes.
• 3. Add the rice, Sazón, and saffron and cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the chicken stock, season with salt, pepper, and hot sauce, stir, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and nestle the chicken thighs skin side up in the rice. (Try not to submerge the skin, so it stays crisp as the rice cooks.) Cook, partially covered, until the rice has absorbed the liquid and the chicken is cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. If the chicken skin is not crisp, place the pan under a hot broiler until the chicken is crispy and golden brown on top.
• 4. To serve, remove the bay leaves, sprinkle the cilantro and parsley over the rice, and gently stir to incorporate. Serve directly from the pan, with the yogurt sprinkled with lime zest and the bottle of hot sauce on the side.
