Ingredients

2 tablespoons Canola Oil

1/2 Onion chopped

2 Cups Long grain rice

3 cloves Garlic minced

1 can Rotel Diced Chilies and Tomatoes 10 oz can

1 can whole tomatoes

2 cups Low sodium chicken broth

1 teaspoon Cumin more to taste

1 teaspoon Kosher Salt

Fresh Cilantro chopped


Directions

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to low and add rice and garlic. S tir constantly, making sure the rice doesn’t burn. Cook over low heat for 3 minutes. Add Ro-tel and tomatoes. Stir to combine and let cook for 2 minutes. Finally, add broth and stir together. Add some kosher salt and a good teaspoon of cumin--—more if you love cumin flavor! Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 10 to 15 additional minutes or until rice is done. Add more liquid as needed; rice shouldn’t be sticky. Just before serving, sprinkle lots of freshly chopped cilantro over the top. Serve immediately.
