Arroz Con Pollo

No reviews yet

Arroz con pollo is a classic Latin way to spice up chicken and rice. Browning the chicken first brings out the flavor of the chicken. Using brown rice in this recipe is not only a healthier choice, it helps absorb the vegetable stock without becoming too mushy. Perfect for texture and taste. This recipe is so easy to make with little hands on effort. It’s perfect for a healthy weeknight dinner, and makes perfect leftovers.
