I need a recipe for the best mexican rice in the world, i like old town mexican cafes in san deigo.?

Answer 1

1 cup long grain white rice

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 1/2 cups chicken broth

1/2 onion, finely chopped

1/2 green bell pepper, finely chopped

1 fresh jalapeno pepper, chopped

1 tomato, seeded and chopped

1 cube chicken bouillon

salt and pepper to taste

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro

1 clove garlic, halved

In a medium sauce pan, cook rice in oil over medium heat for about 3 minutes. Pour in chicken broth, and bring to a boil. Stir in onion, green pepper, jalapeno, and diced tomato. Season with bouillon cube, salt and pepper, cumin, cilantro, and garlic. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook for 20 minutes.

Answer 2

Here is my husband's recipe from jalisco (he is mexican).

Heat 1/2 cup oil in a large non-stick skillet.  Add 2 cups extra long grain rice and sprinkle with 2teaspoons of powdered beef or chicken  broth/consomme powder/base.  Stir constantly until the rice browns.

Add a diced jalapeno, 1 cup chopped tomatoes, 2 cups water, and a small mashed clove of garlic (and maybe a handful of mixed frozen veggies), bring back to a simmer, then cover tightly and simmer 20 minutes.  Leave lid ON, and let stand 30 minutes longer.

Sorry I have never eaten anything in San Diego, but this recipe is 100% MEXICAN, not californian.
