ARROZ CON POLLO WITH A QUESO KICK
i went to a mexican restaurant and ordered fajitas one day. the chicken was a little dry so i drizzled some of the white melting cheese over the top and it tasted amazing. i use the zatarans rice mix and substitute a can of tomato sauce for the diced tomatoes, but either way will work.

ARROZ CON QUESO - RICE WITH CHEESE (BOLIVIA)
I used this recipe for week 32 of my food blog, "Travel by Stove." I am attempting to cook on meal from every nation on Earth, and Bolivia is my 32nd stop. Unless otherwise noted, my Travel by Stove recipes are taken from authentic or traditional sources, and this recipe has been posted without any alternations or additions to the ingredients. This Bolivian side dish is made with a fresh farmer's cheese; "kolla" (traditionally used) is saltier than queso fresco, so when making this be sure to taste and add salt according to your preferences.

Steps:
- Boil the water with the salt, then add the rice and keep boiling, uncovered, until almost all of the water has been absorbed or cooked off. The rice should still be pretty wet, but without pools of water and not fluffy.
- Meanwhile, saute the garlic and onions in a small amount of oil for four or five minutes. Take care not to let them brown.
- When the rice is nearly ready, bring the milk to a boil (warning, milk scalds easily so don't take your eyes off of it).
- Add the milk, cheese and onion/garlic mixture to the rice. Cook over low heat, stirring, until all the cheese has melted.
ARROZ CON QUESO (RICE WITH CHEESE)
My friend Jolene gave me this one. I think she got it from "Diet for a Small Planet". It's one of those "keep all of the ingredients on hand for emergencies" recipes. When you burn something, quietly get of it and make this. No one will know. Prep. time doesn't include cooking the rice.

Arroz con queso, which translates to “rice with cheese,” is a delicious and beloved dish in Latin American cuisine. This simple yet flavorful dish is made by cooking rice with a variety of cheeses to give it a creamy and savory taste. While the recipe for this dish may vary depending on the region or country, there are some valuable tips you can follow to make the perfect arroz con queso. Here are some of them:
Choose the Right Type of Rice
The type of rice you use can greatly impact the texture and flavor of your arroz con queso. For this dish, it is best to choose a medium-grain rice, as it can absorb the liquid and cheese without becoming too soggy or mushy. Make sure to rinse the rice thoroughly before cooking to remove any excess starch or debris that can affect the final product.
Use High-Quality Cheeses
The key to a perfect arroz con queso recipe is the cheese. Choose high-quality cheeses that have a strong flavor and melt easily. Some of the best cheeses to use include cheddar, mozzarella, queso blanco, or parmesan. You can also mix and match different types of cheese to create a unique and delicious flavor.
Add Flavorful Seasonings
To give your arroz con queso a burst of flavor, it is important to season it well. Some of the best seasonings to use include garlic, onion, cumin, and paprika. These spices can enhance the flavor of the cheese and the rice, giving your dish a savory and aromatic taste.
Cook the Rice in Chicken Broth or Stock
For added depth and richness of flavor, consider cooking your rice in chicken broth or stock instead of plain water. This will infuse the rice with a subtle chicken flavor and add a savory taste to the dish. If you prefer a vegetarian option, you can use vegetable broth or stock instead.
Don't Overcook the Rice
To achieve the perfect texture for your arroz con queso, it is important not to overcook the rice. Overcooked rice can become mushy and lose its structure, making it less enjoyable to eat. Keep a close eye on the rice as it cooks and test it periodically to ensure it is cooked to the desired texture.
Add Cheese Gradually
When adding cheese to your arroz con queso recipe, it is best to add it gradually, stirring constantly until it melts and blends with the rice. Adding too much cheese at once can overwhelm the dish and make it overly greasy. Slowly adding cheese will give your dish a smooth and creamy texture.
Use a Non-Stick Pan
To prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom and burning, it is best to use a non-stick pan or pot when cooking your arroz con queso. This will make it easier to stir and prevent the rice from becoming stuck to the bottom.
Garnish with Fresh Herbs
To add a pop of color and freshness to your dish, consider garnishing it with fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley. These herbs can enhance the flavor of the dish and give it a vibrant and appealing look. You can also top the arroz con queso with diced tomatoes, avocados, or jalapenos for added flavor and texture.
Let It Rest Before Serving
After cooking your arroz con queso, it is essential to let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the rice to absorb the flavors and cheese, creating a richer and more flavorful taste. Letting the dish rest also allows it to cool down slightly, making it easier and more enjoyable to eat.
Conclusion
Arroz con queso is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be customized in many ways. Following these valuable tips can help you make the perfect arroz con queso recipe, whether you prefer it plain or with added ingredients such as beans or chicken. With a little practice and experimentation, you can create a flavorful and creamy dish that will become a staple in your home.
