    I didnt have any tomatoes or chicken broth so I used chicken tomato bouillon instead, and a quarter of a jalapeno too. This rice was delicious. I plan to make it again with the tomatoes for sure.

    Our favorite mexican rice recipe. Very nice flavor. The kids think it is a little too spicy. Perhaps adding a bit more rice would result in a less concentrated dish.
