How to Make Arroz Con Salchichas Vienna Sausages

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of canola oil in a 5-quart pot over medium heat. Add 1 cup of sofrito and 1 tablespoon of sazón. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
  2. Add 1 (12 ounce) can of Vienna sausages (drained), 1 (15 ounce) can of tomato sauce, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 cup of chopped olives, and 2 tablespoons of capers (alcaparras). Stir to combine and cook for 5 minutes.
  3. Add 1 ½ cups of long-grain rice and stir well to coat with the sauce.
  4. Pour in 3 cups of hot water (or enough to equal the amount specified on your rice package) and the liquid from the sausage can.
  5. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.
  6. After 10 minutes, gently stir the rice.
  7. Cover the pot tightly with a lid and a layer of aluminum foil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for another 10 minutes.
  8. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.
  9. Serve the Arroz con Salchichas Vienesas hot, accompanied by your favorite red beans and sweet plantains.
