Ingredients
- 1 (16 oz) can of whole tomatoes, with juice
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil or bacon fat
- 1 cup long-grain rice
- 1 cup diced onion
- 1/2 cup finely chopped carrots

- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
14.5-ounce can chicken or beef broth
Salt and pepper to taste
A Step-by-Step Guide to Preparation:
Burst open the canned tomatoes into small pieces directly in a measuring cup. Set this aside for later use.
In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the oil until shimmering. Stir in the rice and continue cooking while stirring often until it takes on a light brown color. Add onions and carrots to the pan and cook until the onions become translucent. If necessary, reduce heat to prevent burning.
Add minced garlic next. Combine with broken-up tomatoes along with their juice, drained green chiles or bell peppers as per your preference, stock of choice—chicken or beef—and seasonings including salt, pepper & cumin powder into one harmonious mix!
