For a richer flavor, toast the rice in the skillet for a few minutes before adding the broth. Add a pinch of smoked paprika for a deeper, more complex flavor profile. Garnish with fresh cilantro, a squeeze of lime juice, and a dollop of sour cream before serving.

Sep 24, 2024The flavors were great, but I needed to add a little more broth towards the end to keep the rice from drying out. Next time, I will check the rice after 30 minutes.
