    How To Make Latin Chicken & Rice (Arroz Con Pollo)

    September 13, 2021 / 2 Comments

    How To Make Latin Chicken & Rice (Arroz Con Pollo) at home. This dish is one of our family favorite comfort foods. The layers of flavor build from the spice blends to the sofrito to the savory aromatics. Arroz Con Pollo (Spanish for chicken and rice) is a one-pan traditional Latin-American dish full of culture and history.

    Homemade Sazon Seasoning Blend

    September 13, 2021 / No Comments

    I recently made Arroz Con Pollo (Latin Chicken & Rice) and the recipe called for Sazon Seasoning. Sazón, which means seasoning in Spanish, is a staple in Latin cooking. When added to soups, stews, and rice dishes it brings a beautiful yellow color. Sure, I could have gone to my local market headed down the International Foods isle and found the familiar yellow and orange box of Sazon packets.

    Easy Achiote Oil (made from Annatto Seeds)

    September 12, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Achiote Oil begins with annatto seeds which come from the achiote tree. The tree bears spiky pod-like fruit that contains these bright red seeds. The annatto seeds can be ground into a powder, made into a paste or used to infuse oil. Because of its gorgeous crimson color, annatto seeds can be used as a food coloring or dye with color ranging from yellow to deep orange.

    Simple Sofrito Recipe

    September 12, 2021 / 3 Comments

    This Simple Sofrito Recipe consists of peppers, onions, garlic, culantro leaves, olive oil and salt. Sofrito is a flavor base of herbs and aromatics used in Latin cooking, much like a French mirepoix or the Cajun holy trinity. While there are many versions of Sofrito, this recipe most resembles one found in Puerto Rican cooking also known as recaito.

But packed full of nutrients without extra calories.  Because let’s face it, most of us don’t need empty calories and are perfectly happy as long as we’re satisfied.  This chili is definitely satisfying.

About Libby

Hi, I'm Libby and welcome to Lemony Thyme. I hope you'll enjoy this collection of recipes, eating experiences, and food photography. My cooking abilities rose to a new level when I started incorporating fresh herbs. I began to understand the term ‘layers of flavor’ and found myself deconstructing dishes with my tongue to identify each ingredient.
