Mexican Style Rice Sopa Seca Recipes

Steps:

• In a wide frying pan over medium-high heat, brown rice lightly in butter or margarine.
• Add onion, garlic, tomato, and chiles, if used and cook for 2 or 3 minutes; add 3 cups of the broth.
• Cover and simmer 25 to 35 minutes or bake, covered, in a 350F oven 50 to 60 minutes.
• Add more broth, if needed, to cook rice. However, there should be no liquid remaining when rice is tender to bite.
• Add cilantro, if desired, during last 10 minutes.
• Garnish rice with olives.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or medium pot over medium-high heat until it ripples. Add the pasta and cook, stirring constantly, until the pasta is golden, about 3 minutes.
• Scoop out and discard 2 tablespoons of the oil. Add the Roasted Tomato-Chile Arbol Salsa and cook for 2 minutes, stirring the whole time. Pour in the chicken stock and let the liquid come to a simmer. Cover the pot and cook, stirring once in a while, until the liquid is absorbed and the pasta is tender, about 20 minutes.
• Divide the pasta between two bowls and garnish with the cilantro and cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Brush a 9-inch square baking dish with oil. Heat the extra-virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fideos and cook, turning them with tongs, until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer the bundles and any broken pieces to a plate. Add the onion to the skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic, coriander, oregano, chili powder, and bay leaf, and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Crush the tomatoes over the pot with your hand and add them to the pot along with their juices. Add the chipotles, increase the heat to high, and cook until thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the broth, the toasted fideos, salt, and pepper, to taste. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer gently, uncovered, breaking up the fideos with a spoon, for about 5 minutes. Stir in the turkey. Remove the bay leaf. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, sprinkle the grated cheese over the top, and cover loosely with foil. Bake until the cheese melts and the casserole is hot through and through, about 20 minutes. If desired, serve with some crema drizzled over the top.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients together in a microwaveable bowl. Microwave on high for 8-9 minutes, or until rice is tender.
• Let sit for 3-5 minutes and it will soak up most of the liquid in the bowl. Fluff with a fork and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add noodles; fry until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. Add onion and garlic to the skillet. Cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add tomato puree and bay leaves; cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.
• Pour tomato mixture carefully into a blender; add water. Cover and hold lid down with a potholder; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend. Pour back into the skillet; add bouillon and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and add the fried noodles. Cook until the noodles are tender and have absorbed most of the tomato sauce, about 15 minutes more.

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a pot. Add rice, reduce heat to low, and cover with a lid. Simmer until rice is nearly tender, about 15 minutes.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add tomatoes and roast until evenly charred, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove skin and transfer to a blender. Add onion, garlic, and bouillon. Process tomato mixture until smooth.
• Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Pour tomato mixture into hot oil; cook and stir until flavors incorporate, 3 to 5 minutes. Add to the saucepan with the rice. Season with salt and cover with a lid. Continue cooking over low heat until rice is soft, 7 to 10 minutes more. Remove from heat. Sprinkle Cotija cheese and parsley on top, cover with a lid, and let sit 10 minutes before serving.
