Description

Turn ordinary rice into flavorful rice with these quick additions.

Directions

Place a medium skillet over medium-high heat with 2 turns of the pan of oil, about 2 tablespoons. Add the hominy or corn, onion, jalapeño and garlic to the pan, and cook until the veggies are golden brown, 5-6 minutes.

Add the rice to the pan and continue cooking until the rice is light golden and crispy, 3-4 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the cilantro, tomatoes and hot sauce. Season with salt and pepper and serve warm alongside Hanger Steak with Margarita Marinade.
