1. If not using precooked rice, cook 1 1/2 qts. (2-lbs 6-oz) raw rice.
2. In a small skillet, heat the oil and the annatto seeds on medium heat for 4-5 minutes, until the oil turns a deep yellow-orange.
3. Strain the oil into a large skillet and discard the seeds.
4. Add the remaining ingredients, except for the rice, salt, and pepper and cook for about 5-10 minutes, until hot.
5. Combine the sauté with the rice. Season with salt and pepper. If the rice is hot, serve immediately. If cold cooked rice is used, transfer the rice and the saute to a lightly oiled baking pan, cover tightly with foil, and bake at 350F for 45 minutes, or until heated through. |
