Arroz con Chorizo (Puerto Rican Rice with Smoked Sausage)

Arroz con chorizo or Puerto Rican rice with smoked sausage is a savory meal that comes together quickly and easily. I love making this when I am running short on time. It comes together in 30 minutes or less, making it a great option for busy weeknights. Smoky chorizo and aromatics like onions and peppers add tons of flavor to the rice. This meal tastes even better the next day!

Arroz con Pollo (Puerto Rican Chicken and Rice)

Arroz con pollo is a staple in Latin + Caribbean cuisine made with savory yellow rice and chicken.
