Servings: persons

1 teaspoon garlic, crushed
1/2 cup green pepper, chopped
1 cup onion, chopped
1 cup tomatoes, diced
3 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1 tablespoon puerto rican seasoning salt (1 envelope, called Sazon, the one with cilantro and achiote)
1 tablespoon chicken bouillon
3 cups long grain rice
6 cups boiling water

1
In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil. When it comes to a boil, remove from heat and set aside.
2
Heat oil in large pot over medium-high heat, until a piece of onion sizzles when added. Add garlic, peppers and onions to oil. Stir veggies; turn heat down to medium when onions start to brown around the edges. Add tomatoes, stirring until heated through.
3
Add all seasonings and continue to stir over medium heat until veggies are evenly coated. While cooking the vegetables, rinse the rice 3 times, until the water runs clear. Add rinsed rice to veggies, stirring for approximately 1 minute, coating rice with the seasoned veggie mix.
4
Pour in hot water and stir well, making sure to scrape any rice off the bottom and sides of the pot.
5
Let rice come to a boil and partly dry out. Watch for when holes or pockets appear on rice, lower heat to lowest setting and then cover with lid. Keep covered for 25 minutes - do NOT remove lid.
6
Uncover, stir rice and serve.
