How to Make Barbecue Style Spanish Rice

1. In a large, heavy-bottomed 8-inch skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
2. Stir in 1 green bell pepper, chopped, and 1 red bell pepper, chopped; cook for another 3 minutes.
3. Add 1 ½ cups long-grain rice, 1 teaspoon chili powder, ½ teaspoon smoked paprika, ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, ¼ teaspoon onion powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine and cook for 1 minute.
4. Pour in 3 cups of barbecue sauce (your favorite kind!) and 2 ¼ cups of chicken broth. Stir well to combine.
5. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
6. Fluff the rice with a fork before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro or green onions, if desired.
