ARROZ CON POLLO



Arroz Con Pollo image

Variations on this staple chicken and rice casserole, an easy one-pot meal, can be found throughout Spain and Latin America. The first step is to brown the cut-up chicken well on all sides. Saute the onions, garlic, green peppers and diced ham; then add the tomatoes, saffron, bay leaf and chicken broth. When the mixture comes to a boil, the rice, capers, olives and chicken are added. The dish cooks, covered tightly, in 20 minutes. To get the most authentic flavor, use high-quality saffron threads.

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup long-grain rice
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon minced garlic
One 8-ounce can tomato sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1 chicken bouillon cube

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Put the chicken in an ovensafe baking dish. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Use tongs to turn the chicken and evenly coat. Bake for 15 minutes until browned but not cooked all the way through (it will finish cooking with the rice).
  • Meanwhile, add the remaining tablespoon olive oil to a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the rice and stir to coat.
  • Toast the rice, stirring occasionally, until it is lightly golden, about 2 minutes. Stir in the onion and garlic and continue cooking until the rice is just lightly browned and the vegetables are starting to soften, about 2 minutes more. Make sure the garlic does not brown.
  • Add the tomato sauce, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, bouillon and 3 cups water. Stir to combine. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce to a simmer and add the chicken to the rice in an even layer, skin-side up and not overlapping. Cover and cook until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes.

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried cumin
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
One 3 1/2-to-4-pound chicken, cut into 8 serving pieces and skin removed
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 small yellow onion, finely diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups long-grain rice
2 cloves garlic, finely diced
1 1/2 cups low-salt chicken stock
1/2 cup tomato sauce

Steps:

  • Combine the salt, garlic powder, cumin, black pepper and cayenne in a plastic gallon bag. Shake until the mixture is well combined.
  • Pat the chicken dry and place in the bag with the spice mixture. Shake the bag, making sure the chicken is well coated.
  • Heat the oil in a 12-inch high-sided skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the chicken and brown on all sides, about 6 minutes each side. Transfer the chicken to a plate, using tongs.
  • Add the onions, green peppers, red peppers and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the skillet. Cook the vegetables over moderate heat, stirring, until softened and fragrant, about 7 minutes. Add the rice and garlic and cook until the rice begins to turn gold in color and fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Meanwhile, combine the stock, tomato sauce and remaining teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Add 1 1/4 cups water and the stock mixture to the skillet and stir to make sure the rice is covered in liquid. Nestle the chicken in the rice, adding any juices from the plate. Bring the rice to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cover. Cook until the chicken is cooked through, the rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed, about 35 minutes. Let the skillet stand covered, about 10 minutes before serving.

ARROZ CON POLLO

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Time 2h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 pieces chicken thighs, bone-in, skin on
4 chicken drumsticks
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Paprika or smoked sweet paprika
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup 2-inch pieces vermicelli pasta
Generous pinch saffron threads
2 cups chicken stock
5 ounces thick-cut speck, smoky ham or Serrano ham, diced
1 large onion or 2 medium onions, chopped
2 to 3 ribs celery, chopped
2 bell peppers, 1 red and 1 green
2 chile peppers, red or green, seeded and finely chopped
3 to 4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 bay leaf
1 large ripe heirloom or organic beefsteak tomato, cored and chopped
1 slightly mounded cup long grain rice

Steps:

  • Season the chicken liberally with salt, pepper, and paprika, add to a pre-heated large, shallow pot with 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil. Once browned, remove the chicken to a plate and drain off the fat. Add butter to the pot and melt. Brown the pasta 2 minutes or until golden, remove to plate and reserve.
  • Place the saffron and chicken stock in a small pot and warm it up to steep the saffron threads.
  • Once the pasta is browned and has been removed from the pot, add the remaining tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, a turn of the pan, and brown the ham, about 2 minutes. Add the onions, celery, bell peppers, hot peppers, garlic and bay leaf to the pan. Cook 5 to 6 minutes to soften up a bit, then add the tomatoes, rice. Stir in the pasta and warm saffron stock. Add the chicken and cover the pot, cook 18 minutes, until rice is tender. Serve or cool completely and store for make-ahead meal.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Heat the dish in the oven until heated through. To reheat: Add 1/2 cup stock or water, sprinkled around the pan. If made-ahead and reheated, the rice will become crunchy on top and at the edges, but this can be a plus in the texture of the dish.

ARROZ CON POLLO



Arroz con Pollo image

Ubiquitous throughout Latin America and beyond, this dish can be as simple or as complex as your ingredients allow. The key is to layer flavor, adding dimension as you go. Boneless, skinless chicken thighs are preferred, but bone-in will also work well. (Chicken breasts lack the same amount of fat and flavor, so they are not recommended here.) Watch the rice carefully as it cooks, absorbing the liquid, as pots and stoves vary greatly. If it starts to smell a little burned, reduce the heat, toss and put the lid on the pot. But don't worry, as this aroma can be part of creating the coveted pegao, a layer of toasted rice that develops on the bottom of the pan and sticks to it, similar to Persian tahdig, Spanish socarrat or Senegalese xoon.

Time 2h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

3 large garlic cloves, finely minced
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons white vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
3 cups medium-grain white rice
3 tablespoons olive oil
5 cups low-sodium chicken broth (or water)
2 1/2 to 3 cups fresh sofrito (see recipe below)
3 dried bay leaves
1 teaspoon ground annatto or sweet paprika
1 cup tomato sauce (basic canned tomato sauce is fine)
3/4 cup medium pimento-stuffed olives, drained (optional)
2 teaspoons drained capers (optional)
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
2 cups frozen peas, thawed
1 lime, cut into wedges
Salted, sliced avocado and tomato, for serving
1 medium red bell pepper, seeded and cut into quarters
3 ají dulce or amarillo peppers (or mini bell peppers), seeded and coarsely chopped
6 large garlic cloves
1 large yellow onion, coarsely chopped
6 fresh culantro leaves and tender stems, coarsely chopped (see Note)
6 fresh cilantro stems, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Prepare the adobo by whisking the ingredients together in a bowl, or blending in a small food processor, pilón or mortar and pestle.
  • Pat the chicken dry, then place in a large bowl or zip-top bag. Pour prepared adobo over chicken. Toss well to combine, then cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap, or seal the bag, and let the chicken rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. If you have the time, marinate for several hours or overnight to make the chicken extra tender and flavorful.
  • Prepare the sofrito: In a large food processor or blender, blend the peppers and garlic until smooth. Add the onion and blend until smooth, then add the culantro and cilantro and blend until smooth. (The preparation may produce more sofrito than needed for this recipe, but you can store additional sofrito in the fridge for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.)
  • Add the rice to a medium bowl, then rinse with several rounds of cool water, pouring through a fine-mesh strainer until water runs out clear.
  • Once chicken is marinated, heat olive oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high. When the oil is simmering, working in batches if necessary, add chicken in one layer and brown for 7 to 10 minutes per batch, turning several times to evenly brown.
  • Meanwhile, bring chicken broth (or water) to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce to a simmer until ready to use.
  • Add sofrito, bay leaves and annatto or paprika to pot with chicken and stir well. Reduce heat to medium, and sauté until liquid is mostly evaporated and sofrito thickens to a paste, about 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Add tomato sauce and cook for 3 to 5 minutes longer, until the sauce darkens. Add the rinsed rice, olives and capers (if using), and salt and pepper, and fold in to ensure that the rice is fully coated and the chicken is evenly distributed.
  • Pour in hot stock, then simmer, uncovered, over medium heat for about 15 minutes, stirring only 2 to 3 times and shaking the pot every few minutes to keep rice level. (The liquid surrounding the rice will lower by about 1 inch.) Watch the rice very closely: The window between just right and overcooked is small, and difficult to predict, but you'll become an expert at this over time.
  • Once you start to spot lots of little bubbles on the surface but see no more pronounced liquid on top, top with the lid, reduce heat to low and cook until the rice is al dente, about 15 to 20 minutes, shaking pot a few times. Once liquid is almost entirely evaporated, sprinkle thawed peas on top.
  • Working directly in the pot, using 2 forks, pull apart chicken thighs until shredded. Gently fluff the rice, bringing grains from the bottom to the top. Return the lid and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
  • Garnish with lime wedges, and serve with salted avocado and tomato slices (or a simple green salad). The dish keeps well in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days.

This Mexican-inspired dish is perfect for those who crave savory and cheesy flavors. If you are looking to prepare a quick and hassle-free meal for your family or friends, follow these valuable tips on how to make arroz con pollo y cheddar a la sartén.

Tip 1: Use High-Quality Ingredients

The key to making a great arroz con pollo y cheddar a la sartén is to use high-quality ingredients. Start by selecting a high-quality chicken that is tender and juicy. Look for free-range or organic chicken if possible. Next, use fresh vegetables such as onions, garlic, bell peppers, and tomatoes. When it comes to the rice, use a long-grain rice like basmati rice, which has a delicate flavor and texture. Finally, choose high-quality cheddar cheese that will melt well and add the perfect amount of creaminess and flavor to the dish.

Tip 2: Properly Season the Chicken and Vegetables

To make a flavorful arroz con pollo y cheddar a la sartén, you need to properly season the chicken and vegetables. Begin by seasoning the chicken with salt and pepper, and then add your preferred seasonings like cumin, paprika, and chili powder. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to an hour to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat. Next, heat up the skillet and sauté the vegetables until they are caramelized and tender. Add the chicken and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until it is fully cooked. This will guarantee that the dish is bursting with flavor.

Tip 3: Use the Right Amount of Liquid

When making arroz con pollo y cheddar a la sartén, it is important to use the right amount of liquid. Too little liquid will cause the rice to be undercooked, while too much liquid will make the rice mushy. A good rule of thumb is to use two cups of liquid for every cup of rice. You can use water or chicken stock to cook the rice. Once the liquid has been added, bring it to a boil, then cover the skillet and let it cook on low heat for about 20 minutes or until the liquid has been fully absorbed by the rice.

Tip 4: Layer the Cheddar Cheese

Cheese is an essential ingredient when it comes to arroz con pollo y cheddar a la sartén. To get that ooey-gooey, cheesy goodness, layer the cheddar cheese on top of the rice before finishing the dish in the oven. This will allow the cheese to melt perfectly and add a nice flavor to the dish. Once you have layered the cheese, place the skillet in the oven and bake it for 5 to 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Tip 5: Let it Rest Before Serving

After removing the skillet from the oven, let the arroz con pollo y cheddar a la sartén rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to settle and the cheese to set, making it easier to serve. It will also give you time to put together a side dish, such as a salad or vegetable.
Conclusion
Making arroz con pollo y cheddar a la sartén is a simple and delicious meal that can be enjoyed at any time of day. By following these valuable tips, you can prepare a flavorful and creamy dish that will impress your family and friends. Remember to use high-quality ingredients, properly season the chicken and vegetables, use the right amount of liquid, layer the cheddar cheese, and let it rest before serving. With these tips, you can create a dish that is perfect for any occasion.
