My grandmother, who was Mexican taught me how to cook this Spanish rice. Now my son who is 24 and living on his own, makes his own.
Total Time: 20-30 minutes
Yield: 6 or more servings
Source: My grandmother
Ingredients:
- 1 cup long grain white rice
- 3-4 green onion stalks, cut small (more or less, depending on your taste)
- 1 small ripe tomato, diced
- 1 1/2 cup chicken stock, warmed
- 1 can (small) tomato sauce (I use the spicy tomato sauce, but it's a matter of taste)
- Adobo seasoning to taste
- pepper to taste
- 2 Tbsp oil, any kind of your choice
- 2 Tbsp butter (not margarine, or I can't Believe it's not Butter)
Steps:
- Saute the green onion and rice until the rice is slightly browned and has a nutty smell to it.
- Add the tomatoes and stir in.
- Then add the warmed chicken stock and tomato sauce.
- Season with the Adobo, or salt and pepper to taste, then add the butter.
- Simmer 18-20 minutes, or until rice is done and all liquid is absorbed and rice is tender.

Adobo is a spice blend used in Hispanic cooking. You should be able to find it at any grocery store, near the taco seasoning.
