Instructions
Sauté the Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add Rice
Add the long-grain rice to the skillet and stir well to coat the rice with the oil and spices.
Incorporate Tomato Sauce and Broth
Pour in the tomato sauce and vegetable broth. Stir to combine everything evenly.
Bring to a Simmer
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover the skillet. Let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and has absorbed most of the liquid.
Add Peas and Cilantro
Stir in the frozen peas and chopped cilantro, and cook for an additional 5 minutes until the peas are heated through.
Serve
Fluff the rice with a fork before serving. Enjoy your Spanish rice as a side dish or a main course!
