Side Dishes - Saffron Rice with Chorizo
by Lee Gibson
Description |
I found this at Epicurious.com and modified it a bit. Epicurious says that it's from Bon Appétit March 1991. At any rate, it's yummy. |
Ingredients |
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 large red bell pepper, chopped
- 3 large garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups long-grain rice (I used Texmati brown rice)
- 1/4 pound smoked, fully cooked Spanish chorizo or pepperoni, cut diagonally into 1/4-inch-thick slices
- 4 cups canned chicken broth
- 1/4 teaspoon (scant) saffron threads (Good also without the saffron)
- Salt and pepper
- 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
|
Directions |
Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper and garlic and sauté until vegetables are tender, about 6 minutes. Add sausage, broth and saffron and bring to boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Let stand 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Mix in parsley and serve. |
