Notes
- Be sure to check the full post above for more ingredient tips, serving suggestions, how to store leftovers, and more.
- Choose the Right Pan. A large non-stick skillet helps to cook everything evenly, reduces the chances of ingredients sticking to the pan, and makes clean-up a breeze.
- Rice Undercooked? If your rice is still undercooked after cooking you may need to cook it a bit longer. Add more liquid if it's needed.
- Watch It While It Cooks. You will need to stir the dish frequently to prevent sticking. If you notice the ingredients are sticking, lower the heat, and continue stirring to prevent burning.
- Too Much Liquid. If you find your rice is soggy or the dish looks watery, simmer it for a few more minutes with the lid removed, allowing some of the excess liquid to evaporate.
