Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
-
1 ½ cups long-grain rice
-
3 cups water
-
2 roma (plum) tomatoes, chopped
-
1 cup chopped onion
-
¾ cup chopped fresh cilantro, or more to taste
-
1 tablespoon tomato bouillon with chicken flavoring (such as Knorr®), or more to taste
Directions
-
Place a pot over medium-heat heat; add oil and heat until oil shimmers slightly. Pour rice into hot oil, stirring constantly, until rice is golden to dark brown, about 5 minutes.
-
Mix water, tomatoes, onion, cilantro, and bouillon into rice. Bring to a boil, then turn off heat. Cover the pot tightly with a lid and let sit until liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Adjust seasonings as needed.
Cook’s Note
Go easy on the bouillon — start with 1 tablespoon and work from there. You can always sprinkle it on top at the end!
