How to Make Arroz Guatemalteco
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large pot or saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 cup of rice and sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the rice is translucent and has absorbed the oil.
- Add 1 medium onion (chopped), 1 bell pepper (chopped), 2 carrots (chopped), 1 cup of frozen peas, 1 teaspoon of salt, and ½ teaspoon of black pepper. Stir well to combine.
- Pour in 4 cups of chicken or vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover the pot tightly, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until all the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is cooked through.
- Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork and serving.
