I've been looking for a recipe like this for a LONG time. This is a perfect side dish to Southwest/TexMex/Mexican type meals but tonight we had it with grilled pork chops. I didn't use the boil-in-the-bag rice, I used 1 cup of Uncle Ben's, 2 C. water with 2 chicken boullion cubes (in place of the can of chicken broth) and the tomato flavored boullion cube Crawfish includes in the recipe. It was great! Thanks Crawfish Pie for the terrific recipe and for turning me on to the Mexican tomato-flavored boullion cubes, I'll be using them in a lot more dishes! -
This was a great starter recipe, but rather bland overall. So I added salsa seasonings to it and some cilantro. I also added a touch extra salt and some bacon crumblings. Great starter though. Thanks.
