Here's How to Make Bad Bunny's Favorite Puerto Rican Dish: Arroz Con Salchichas

Puerto Rican Arroz Con Salchichas

original recipe

You can use cubed ham steak, kielbasa, or hot dogs in place of Vienna sausages.

Heat a cast-iron or aluminum dutch oven (caldero) to medium heat, then add olive oil and sofrito. Sauté sofrito in oil for 3-4 minutes, or until fragrant.
To the sautéed sofrito, add green pepper and onion. Sauté until the onion is translucent.
Add the Vienna sausages, tomato paste, sazón, adobo, and chicken bouillon cube to the pot, and stir until combined.
Pour in the chicken broth and bay leaves, then bring the mixture to a boil. While it's coming up to a boil, taste the broth and add salt as needed.
Once the mixture is boiling, add the rice to the dutch oven — make sure all of the raw grains of rice are evenly submerged across the top of the caldero. Let the water and rice boil for a few minutes, or until you see the rice start to absorb the liquid in the pot.
When the top layer of water has been absorbed, stir the rice once with a wooden spoon, then place an aluminum-covered lid on top of the dutch oven and lower the burner to low.
Remove the lid when the rice is fully cooked, about 20-25 minutes later, and simmer for another 5-10 minutes. You’ll know the rice is done when all additional liquid within the pot is gone and the rice granules are plump.
Serve and enjoy!
