Spanish Rice II
SPANISH RICE
INGREDIENTS:
2 tablespoons olive oil (can use up to 1/4 cup)
1 onion, chopped fine
1 garlic clove, minced
2 cups of medium or long-grain white rice
3 cups* chicken stock (or vegetable stock if vegetarian)
1 heaping tablespoon tomato paste or 1 cup of diced fresh or cooked tomatoes, strained
Pinch of oregano
1 teaspoon salt
DIRECTIONS:
*Check the instructions on the rice package for the proportions of liquid to rice. They can range from 1:1 to 2:1. If your rice calls for 2 cups of water for every cup of rice, then for this recipe, use 4 cups of stock for 2 cups of rice.
1. In a large skillet brown rice in olive oil, medium/high heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook onion rice mixture, stirring frequently, about 4 minutes, or until onions are softened.
2. In a separate sauce pan bring stock to a simmer. Add tomato sauce, oregano, and salt. Add rice to broth. Bring to a simmer. Cover. Lower heat and cook 15-25 minutes, depending on the type of rice and the instructions on the rice package. Turn off heat and let sit for 5 minutes.
Serves 4 to 6

It's not Spanish Rice but the following recipe may help you use up your peppers and tomatoes.
Lecso - Hungarian vegetable stew
2 tablespoons bacon fat or oil
1-1/2 teaspoons paprika, optional
2 or 3 large onions, sliced
7 large peppers (green, red, yellow, orange) sliced into ¼ to ½ inch strips
5 or 6 large tomatoes, peeled and diced (in the Winter I use canned, diced)
Saute bacon in a large pot or use oil.
*Add sliced onions and saute on low for 5 minute
Add sliced peppers and cook for about 5 minutes stirring constantly
Add diced tomatoes salt, pepper, paprika and cook 15 to 20 minutes, until peppers are done but not mushy.
*You can add sliced sausage or sliced hot dogs when you are sauteing onions - serve over rice or dumplings for a main course.
Serve it over rice as a side dish.
Serve it over scrambled eggs.
The above ingredient portions are estimated. You can add more or less of anything.
I have also added sliced zucchini or sliced okra.
You can also add a hot pepper or a little cayenne, if you like a little bite.
Freezes well.

Check my notes. I posted the recipe "as written" from Southern Living...
...but my notes make a much more accessible recipe.
I use canned tomatoes and canned chiles.
Try it!
