Инструкции
- Adjust rack to middle of oven and preheat to 350 degrees
- Process tomatoes and onion in food processor or blender until pureed and smooth. Transfer to measuring cup and reserve exactly 2 cups. Discard excess.
- Rinse rice in fine mesh strainer under cold running water until water runs clear. Note: You must do this to remove starch, or rice will not be dry and fluffy. Shake to remove excess water.
- Heat oil over medium heat in heavy bottomed oven-safe 10 or 12 inch straight sided dutch oven with tight fitting lid.
- Add rice and fry, stirring, until light golden, about 6-8 minutes.
- Add garlic and jalapenos and cook, stirring constantly for about 1-1/2 minutes.
- Stir in chicken broth, pureed mixture, tomato paste, and salt, increase heat and bring to a boil.
- Cover pan and transfer to preheated oven.
- Bake 30-35 minutes until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender (do not remove lid).
- Remove from oven, let sit 15 minutes. Fluff with fork and serve.
