Arroz Con Gandules is not the simplest dish to make as it requires around 2 hours of time to prep and cook, but it is so worth it. It’s a dish that can be served alone or with a variety of sides.

The Gandules look bright green on the can, but don’t be surprised when you open it and realize it has more of a brown color to them.

INGREDIENTS

- Onion – Green pepper – Packet of Sazon – Cilantro – Bottle of caper – Cove of garlic – Salt – Pepper

1

After the Sofrito is done it’s time to start the rice.

2

To start the base of the rice you will want to heat 2 tablespoons of oil to a large pot and add in 1/4 cup sliced chorizo. Since I don’t eat chorizo, I added cut up pieces of turkey sausage.

3

Once the meat is fried lightly, pour in half of the blended sofrito and stir in.

4

After the sofrito is added to the meat, pour in 2 cups of white long grained rice and 2 cups of water.
