I cooked this dish for a crowd and it was a big hit. Followed the recipe to the letter, except I sauteed the onion and pepper with a little butter before adding to the dish. I served it with Tasty Lentil Tacos and Spicy Bean Salsa, also found on this site. I live in Texas. In defense of this person who so graciously shared her recipe with this site, when you go to most "mexican" restaurants and ask for "arroz con pollo", you get a dish similar to this. I consider this Tex-Mex, not traditional Mexican. And I find the sarcastic, self-aggrandizing comments from some reviewers to be rude and unnecessary (and it isn't fair to "review" a recipe you haven't even made). Arroz con pollo translates simply to "chicken with rice". This is a simple, Americanized version that is quite prevalent in some areas of the country.
