Confetti Yellow Rice Yield: 12 Servings
1 yellow bell pepper diced 1 red bell pepper diced 1 green bell pepper diced 1 onion diced 2 c long grain raw rice 4 c chicken stock 1 c fresh frozen green peas annatto oil
Saute onions and peppers till soft but not browned. Stir in raw rice and cook a few minutes. Add the stock and annatto oil and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer until rice is tender. Let rest off heat 5 minutes. Fluff with fork. Season to taste. Stir in thawed green peas. Flavorful, colorful and delicious.
Note: Annatto seeds are achiote seeds. The seeds are simmered in oil to extract the orange yellow color used in many Hispanic dishes. The colored oil may color grains, pastries , vegetables or even add a golden yellow color as a poultry baste.
To make oil: Bring 1 cup olive oil with 1/2 cup annatto seeds to almost a boil. Simmer 5 minutes. Strain oil and cool and refrigerate. Use about 1 to 2 tsp in rice dishes.
