Spanish Rice II

I am a great lover of Spanish cooking and recipes, and have several of my own. This is probably the best rice recipe I have tasted--after I made two alterations. I used Chicken stock in place of water, and I added 1 large seeded and diced jalepeno to the green peppers. This gave it the little added "bite" that I was used to in Spanish cuisine. Five cheers for Dave on this fine recipe. I will make it many more times, as my small family and many friends agreed with me on the outcome. Thanks again, Dave.

Nice recipe! I used beef broth instead of water, and added some minced garlic and 3/4 teaspoon of cumin. Just before serving I topped this off with some shredded cheddar cheese. Delicious!

A friend of mine makes a wonderful spanish rice and i couldnt get her on the phone so i looked this one up. I was very happy with my decision. My whole family loved this recipe. I used 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin and one teaspoon chili powder because my friend used cumin and i wanted to add it to mine. I love this combination and it will be a regular in my house! thank you

I followed another reviewers advice and added a clove of garlic. I used a heaping teaspoon of chili powder (2 seemed too much to me) & have to say this was some of the best Spanish rice I've ever had the pleasure of eating. I will definately be making this again. Went great with Carne Asada! Thanks Dave! :O)

Very good! And very simple. I did substitute a can of low sodium chicken broth for the water, added a little chopped garlic, and used a can of Rotell Fiesta flavor tomatoes with cilantro and lime juice. I made fajitas and served this as a side dish topped with Mexican blend cheese and sliced olives, and I should have doubled the recipe! It was gone in a flash! This one is a keeper! So easy and taste BETTER than the rice in most restaurants! Thanks!

Like most others, I used chicken stock instead of water. Mine was too spicy...next time I'll add less chili powder. There was a big difference in the taste of this recipe and a box. This tasted so fresh...will definitely make this again. Thanks!

This is a great rice recipe! I made it last weekend for my Mothers birthday and everyone loved it. I added a few sprinkles of cumin, but other than that didn't stray from the recipe, thanks Dave.

What an easy Spanish Rice recipe. It was much better than the stuff from a box. The only change I made was to use a can of tomatoes and a can of green chilies (I didn't have a can with).

I must have forgotten to rate this one... I've made this recipe many times. As written it is a 4 star recipe (I made it this way several times). But something was missing... Another reviewer figured it out - ADD 1 teaspoon cumin. Decrease Chili powder to 1 teaspoon. It makes all the difference! Great, easy recipe!
