About Mexican rice
Mexican rice, also known as Spanish rice, is a flavorful side dish originating from Mexican cuisine. Typically made with long-grain white or brown rice, it is simmered in a tomato-based sauce enriched with onions, garlic, chicken or vegetable broth, and spices like cumin and chili powder. Variations may include chopped vegetables like peas, carrots, or bell peppers for added texture and nutrients. This dish is a rich source of carbohydrates, providing energy, and can supply dietary fiber when prepared with brown rice or whole grains. Its vitamin content, like vitamin C and A, often comes from the tomatoes and vegetables. However, depending on preparation, sodium levels can be high due to broth and seasoning blends, so moderation is key. Mexican rice pairs well with a variety of dishes, making it a versatile and satisfying addition to meals.
