I have also made this with 1/2 pound  ground beef  that I brown first with the onion, garlic and chili flakes, feel free to add in a small green bell pepper also with the onions and garlic,  frozen thawed peas and black beans are also a great addition, this recipe is really a blank canvass for whatever you want to add in… it’s easy with lots of flavor!

Servings 4

Ingredients:

3 tablespoons oil

1/2 medium onion, chopped

4-6 garlic cloves, finely chopped

1/2 teaspoon crushed chili flakes (or adjust to heat level)

1 cup uncooked white rice (I use converted rice)

1 cup water

1 cup chicken broth (or use 2 cups either)

1 (16-ounce) jar Pace Picante sauce

1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

Instructions:

In a medium saucepan heat oil over medium-high heat; add in onion and saute for about 4 minutes.

Add ingarlic and chili flakes and cook 2 minutes.

Add in rice, water, chicken broth and salsa; bring to a boil over medium heat stirring.

Season with black pepper and salt.

Reduce heat to low cover and simmer until rice is tender (about 20-22 minutes).
