Guest Post: Marcia Rice

From friend-of-the-blog, Mark Pescatore:

Marcia Rice: pronounced MAH-SEE-AH, not like the older sister on the “Brady Bunch.”

My brother was singing the praises of his rice cooker a couple of years ago and eventually bought one for me as a Christmas present. And yes, when it comes to cook and reheating rice, it’s swell. But seriously, how much plain white rice or brown rice can you eat? Then, we went to a party being thrown by Marcia and discovered her delicious rice. It’s ridiculously simple to prepare, but you will be amazed at how flavorful it is.

Marcia Rice

2 cups rice
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon Goya Adobo all purpose seasoning with pepper (yellow label, red top)
2 tablespoons olive oil

Rinse rice, then put in rice cooker with normal amount of water required by your rice cooker. Add in all ingredients, stir, turn on rice cooker and cook as normal.

Notes from Laura:
You can make Marcia Rice without a rice cooker; simply add the Adobo and olive oil to the cooking water before adding the raw rice, and proceed as normal.

As Adobo seasoning already contains salt, you also may want to reduce or eliminate the additional salt.
