Ingredients List
- 1 Yellow bell pepper diced
- 1 Red bell pepper diced
- 1 Gr bell pepper diced
- 1 Onion diced
- 2 c Raw rice- long grain
- 4 c Chicken stock
- 1 c Fresh frozen green peas
- Annato oil*
Directions
Saute onions and peppers till soft but not browned. Stir in raw rice and
cook a few minutes. Add the stock and annato oil and bring to a boil. Cover
and simmer until rice is tender. Let rest off heat 5 minutes. Fluff with
fork. Season to taste. Stir in thawed green peas.Flavorful, colorful and
delicious.
Annato oil* annato seeds are achiote seeds. The seeds are simmered in oil
to extract the orange yellow color used in many Hispanic dishes. The
colored oil may color grains, pastries , vegetables or even add a golden
yellow color as a poultry baste. to make oil: Bring 1 cup oil ( I use olive
) with 1/2 cup annato seeds to almost a boil. Simmer 5 minutes. Strain oil
and cool and refrigerate. Use about 1 to 2 tsp in rice dishes.Annato tends
to be bitter, so use sparingly. In small amounts no bitter taste is
noticed. Of course tumeric and curry do color and flavor but yuou may like
to try this for a pleasant change. Note: annato really stains, so be
careful not to spill it !
