Recipe View 5 mins Remove from heat and let the rice stand, covered, for 5-10 minutes before fluffing with a fork. This allows the rice to fully absorb any remaining moisture and prevents it from becoming mushy. (5-10 minutes)

For a richer flavor, use chicken broth instead of water.
Add a pinch of cumin or smoked paprika for extra depth.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice before serving.
For a vegetarian option, consider adding some corn or black beans along with the tomatoes.
