Puerto Rican dishes tend to have a bit of a kick to them, and the classic ‘chicken and rice’ dish is no different. For Puerto Rican chicken and rice, it’s best to cook it all together in one pot, and you should try not to stir it during the cooking process; the pot will do most of the work for you. In the pot you’ll have rice, sunflower oil, 8 chicken drumsticks, onion, garlic, turmeric, chilli, thyme, peppers and olives stuffed with pimento. You can then finish the meal off with lime wedges to balance out the flavours. It’s a zesty dish and it’s a fine example of Puerto Rican comfort food. If you love tropical flavours and a bit of heat, this dish could be for you, so give it a go there are lots of recipes online but the ingredients tend to be the same or similar to those that we’ve listed above.
