   Meanwhile, in a large skillet heat oil over medium/high heat, add the rice and garlic, saute for 3 minutes then add the bell pepper, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Continue to cook the rice until lightly browned. Add the hot water and bouillon mixture and bring to boil. DO NOT STIR! THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT! Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for approximately 20 minutes or until all the water has evaporated. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
