Classic Cuban-Style Arroz Con Pollo
Arroz con pollo! A classic, one-pot Cuban-style dish made with chicken, rice, tomato sauce, bell peppers, and spices. Few dishes embody tradition quite like a hearty Cuban arroz con pollo, which directly translates to “chicken with rice,” but is so much more than that! This is one of those foods that often stands out as a “abuela’s favourite,” and each household has their own twist to the recipe.
Arroz con pollo traces its lineage back to the Spanish colonization of Latin America, which brought rice to the region. As a result, many Latin countries have their own version of arroz con pollo.
