Here is how you make Nanny's Arroz con pollo:

Start by steaming the rice:Put 1 and 1/2 cups rice in a rice steamer bowl with 2 and 1/2 cups water. 2 tsp of salt, 1 tsp pepper, and 1 tbsp. olive oil. Stir the mixture gently, and put in the steam. Set the timer for 60 minutes. While the rice is steaming, start the sofrito:Heat up 2 tbsp of olive oil in a 6 qt. pot. Cut the salt pork into small cubes or strips, and put in the ollive oil. It should fry softly, but make sure you don't burn the olive oil or salt pork. Once the salt pork is light brown and crispy. take the pot of the fire. Dice the onion. Mash the garlic cloves into a paste using 1/2 tbsp of olive oil, and a dash of salt and pepper. Put the pot back on the fire, at a medium low temperature. Add the diced onion and galic mash to the oil and salt pork. and cook until the onion is opaque. Be careful to not burn the garlic, as burnt garlic is bitter. Once this base is cooked add, the tomato sauce, and stir the mixture until it comes to a simmer. Add the olives and cilantro. I also pour in a little of the juice from the olive jar. Let this sofrito cook at simmering for about 10 mins. while you dice the raw chicken. Throw in the diced chicken to the simmering mixture, and stir. Bring to a boil for aobut 1 min., stirring the whole time. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 mins. Once the steamed rice is done, stir it in slowly into the base, so that the rice does not get mushy. Serve with hot sauce, and enjoy! Serving Size:?Makes 8 1-cup servingsNumber of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user TINA71268.
