CUBAN-STYLE YELLOW RICE
Yellow rice is a staple in the Caribbean because of its beautiful color and flavor. Being Cuban, our household often served yellow rice. It's traditional to garnish yellow rice with pimentos, but I don't like them so I don't. Serve yellow rice with Cuban-style roast pork, or add cooked chicken pieces while cooking the rice to make Arroz con Pollo.

Steps:
- Place the rice in a sieve and rinse under cold water until the water runs clear. Shake sieve to remove excess water from rice.

Reduce heat to low, cover pan, and simmer. After cooking for 10 minutes, gently stir the peas into the rice. Cook until all the water is evaporated and the rice is tender, 15 to 20 minutes longer.

CUBAN BAKED CHICKEN WITH SWEET PEPPERS AND YELLOW RICE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Pat the chicken dry and season with salt and pepper. Melt the butter with the oil in a large deep skillet, with a lid over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, skin-side down, and cook until well browned, about 6 minutes. Turn chicken and cook until other side browns lightly, about 2 minutes more. Transfer chicken to a plate. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons fat.
- Add the onion to the skillet and cook, stirring often, until soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute longer. Add the peppers and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the turmeric, cumin, rice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt and stir until the rice is coated. Pour in the broth, stir to distribute the rice evenly. Increase the heat to high and boil until liquid begins to be absorbed into the rice, about 2 minutes. Nestle the chicken in the rice. Cover and transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the rice is tender and chicken cooks through, about 25 minutes.
- Remove the cover, fluff the rice and stir in the peas. Cover and let sit to warm the peas, about 5 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper. Serve.
KIRSTEN'S CUBAN CHICKEN AND RICE
I am half Cuban, and I remember my grandmother making this dish for us every time she came to visit. I have scoured the internet for different recipes, finally settling on this one that I have made my own. It is a spicier, warm-your-soul version that is full of flavor and a hit every time I make it!

Steps:
- Season both sides of the chicken pieces in salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a wide nonstick pot over medium heat. Add chicken, and brown for 8 to 10 minutes per side, working in batches if necessary. Remove to a plate.
- Add onion and saute until it just starts to turn brown, about 7 minutes. Add sazon, sofrito, garlic, cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, thyme, adobo, turmeric, and cayenne pepper; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add rice and stir until all grains are coated with oil and spices. Return the chicken to the pan, then add chicken broth, chiles, and olives. Stir and bring to a boil.
- Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid and reduce heat to low. Cook, without lifting the lid, until all liquid is absorbed, rice is tender, and chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
