Description
Arroz con pollo is a timeless dish and this version from my native Costa Rica takes me home no matter where I am. Chicken thighs are poached until tender, then the cooking liquid is mixed with achiote for a flavorful base for simmering the rice and vegetables. Costa Rica's famous Lizano Sauce is the classic accompaniment to the chicken and rice dish and brings sweet and spicy notes. I'm thrilled to share this recipe with the hopes that a little of the Costa Rican “pura vida,” the spirit of good living, comes through and brings a smile to your face.
