Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

Pour oil into a saucepan until it just covers the bottom of the pan. Into the same saucepan, add enough rice to evenly cover the bottom.

Step 2

Toast the rice and oil until the rice takes on a dark golden color.

Step 3

Cover the toasted rice with chicken broth and allow to simmer down. During this process, add a healthy spoonful of minced garlic, pepper to taste, and enough tomato bouillon powder to turn the rice a dark orange/red color (see photo).

Step 4

After the chicken broth has cooked down, add enough water to completely cover the rice. Allow to cook down only stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Once the water has cooked down, taste the rice to see if it is cooked through. If needed, repeat step 4 until completely cooked.

Step 6

Enjoy!
