Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups water
2 cups white rice

Steps:

  • Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes, adding frozen corn with about 5 minutes remaining.

  • Stir onions into the cooked rice-corn mixture. Stir in salsa and pepper Jack cheese.
