For an extra layer of flavor, toast the rice in the skillet for a few minutes before adding the liquid. Adjust the amount of jalapeño to suit your preference for heat. A red bell pepper, finely diced, can also be added with the white parts of the green onions for additional color and sweetness. Using high-quality chicken broth will significantly enhance the overall flavor of the dish. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a saucepan or microwave.

Mar 22, 2025I found that 2 jalapenos made it a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time, I'll only use one.
