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.

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.

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.
