• 3 tablespoons Goya Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 1 cup yellow onion, finely chopped
• 1 packet Goya Powdered Chicken Bouillon

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season chicken with adobo. Heat oil in a caldero, or large heavy pot, over medium heat. Cook chicken in batches until brown on all sides, 7 to 10 minutes; set aside.

Step 2

Stir onion, peppers, and garlic into the pot; cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add rice, bouillon, and Sazón to pot. Cook, stirring constantly, until rice is completely coated in oil mixture, about 1 minute.

Step 3

Stir in 3 cups water; bring to a boil. Add alcaparrado and chicken (skin-side up) to the pot. Cover pot, reduce heat to low, and simmer until water is absorbed, rice is tender, and chicken is cooked through, about 25 minutes.

Step 4

Fluff rice using a fork and garnish with pimiento strips and peas to serve.
