How to Make Arroz Con Pollo Dominican Style Chicken Rice

1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned on all sides.
2. Add the onion, green bell pepper, and garlic to the pot. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
3. Stir in the sofrito, tomato paste, and adobo seasoning. Cook for 1 minute more.
4. Add the rice and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to toast slightly.
5. Pour in the chicken broth, water, and diced tomatoes. Bring to a boil.
6. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and the liquid is absorbed. Stir halfway through.
7. Fluff the rice with a fork before serving. Garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired.
8. Serve hot with your favorite sides, such as a fresh salad and fried plantains.
