Mexican Rice

This rice does great with any Mexican food. I usually have it with homemade refried pinto beans.

Mexican Rice 

Prep Time: 5 Min Cook Time: 25 Min Ready In: 30 Min

Servings: 4  

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons oil
• 1 cup uncooked long-grain rice (I've done many types of rice, including short grained and it still turns out great!)
• 1 teaspoon garlic salt (I've used garlic powder and added salt)
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/4 cup chopped onion
• 1/2 cup tomato sauce
• 2 cups chicken broth

Directions

1.     Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and add rice. Cook, stirring constantly, until puffed and golden. While rice is cooking, sprinkle with salt and cumin.

2.     Stir in onions and cook until tender. Stir in tomato sauce and chicken broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
