I don't know if I've given you this recipe for mexican rice or not, but it is by far the best I've ever used.
Mexican Rice recipe
1 tsp salt
1 clove minced garlic
3 Tbsp olive oil
1 cup uncooked jasmine rice
2 cups chicken broth (I use boullion most of the time)
1/2 cup tomato puree (I use salsa)
1/2 cup chopped bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
heat oil. add rice and cook until golden. add and saute onion, bell pepper, and garlic. add salt, tomato and broth. simmer until tender about 20 minutes with the lid on just like other rice.
Fajita Marinade
Chicken or turkey
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1/3 cup lime juice
1/4 cup chopped onion
2 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp pepper
marinate overnight or as long as you want. I marinaded it for several hours. I think the lime is what makes this taste so good, so don't leave that out!!

the fajita marinade sounds great! it looks a little like bob's except adds the lime juice. i think lime flavor is key in mexican food. i tried to buy one of those lame plastic limes filled with lime juice concentrate from the grocery store (they are always next to the limes and lemons) and it doesn't taste half as good as real limes! don't try them. sometimes limes are just really expensive though
Very Tasty! What about the chayenne pepper though?
