Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and rice and cook, stirring frequently, until onion starts to turn translucent and rice starts to become a toasty golden brown, about 3-5 minutes.
- Stir in cumin, then add broth, tomato sauce and bullion and bring to a rapid boil.
- Add in the peas and carrots and serrano peppers (whole) and let the rice return to a boil.
- Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to low and let the rice simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the liquid has been absorbed.
- Remove the pan from the heat and discard the peppers. Serve warm. Enjoy!
