Ingredients
Instructions
Heat oil in saucepan over medium heat. Add rice and sauté, stirring constantly, until lightly golden brown. Visual Cue: Rice should be fragrant and lightly toasted.
Add onion and garlic to the saucepan and cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes. Visual Cue: Onion should be translucent and garlic should be fragrant.
Stir in diced tomatoes (with their juice), chili powder, cumin, and salt. Bring to a simmer.
Pour in chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover tightly, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Do not lift the lid during cooking!
Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5-10 minutes. This allows the rice to steam and finish cooking evenly.
Fluff with a fork and garnish with cilantro, if desired. Serve immediately.
