My wife and I have been trying every “Mexican rice” under the sun. Look no further!! This rice is PERFECT! EVERY! SINGLE! TIME! Thank you, Claudia, just ordered your cookbook!
Thank you Claudia! I am 60 and have been cooking for 45 years but I could never figure out perfect Mexican rice until now. You rock! God Bless you and your family 🙏
I always watched my mom cook because she wouldn’t let me help …. Right now she’s in the hospital and your recipes really help! Ty! My dad wouldn’t eat my moms albondigas but when I made yours he loved them! He’s in heaven now but I’m so glad I cooked for him 😊

Hola Claudia. I can make any Mexican dish there is. From tacos to enchiladas to chile rellenos, but I have always had trouble with rice to the point I get my wife, named like you Claudia, to make rice all the time. I tried this style of making it in the oven. Damn it lady! The rice came out so good. I made a ground beef chile colorado enchilada casserole to go with the rice. My wife had three little cups of the rice before I could finish with the casserole. She said it was the best. I used a cast iron skillet and workout just perfect. I wouldn’t change a thing on this recipe. Gracias y saludos!
@@Hope-ot1xy Yes, I did. I know that cast iron skillets don’t come with a lid but I have one from another pan that fits it just right. You want to cover it so it doesn’t dry it up. Good luck!
I have never made Mexican rice, and I spent a lot of time searching for one that would taste like my favorite Mexican restaurant’s with all of the rice cooked thoroughly. Now, I have made this recipe several times and won’t bother trying another. My go-to! Very good recipe.
Arroz Con Pollo: add chopped carrots to onions & rice. Add fresh peas & shredded chicken before putting in oven. When using fresh chicken: I braise chicken BRIEFLY with the rice, once rice is coated with oil to lock in juices. Thank you, Claudia!❤😋😋
Arroz con pollo! A staple dish that I make almost every month! What I do, is use skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs… I fry them skin side down. Then I remove them and brown the rice in the chicken fat and fond that has built-up on the surface. When the rice has browned, I add the thighs back in along with the seasoned tomato broth, cover with a heavy lid and bake for 20 mins at 375° then remove and allow it to finish off the heat for 10 min.
I made this and I can verify it’s perfect. I feel like she shared a secret with us. It does take a moment to realize that the super over salted stuff from the store is - in fact - super over salted. This dish is gentle but flavorful. Thanks!!!!
This recipe is the real deal. I was never fully happy with the way my Mexican rice came out. But this way, it comes out perfect. Thank you so much Claudia!! ❤
I want to send you a big THANK YOU, I have tried for years to cook Mexican rice without success until last week. I followed the instructions and everyone s loved it …….👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I tried your receipe!! It's awsome!! I had to change it a little, had 4 Mexican chilies, 3 jolopenioes and about 6 regular tomatoes, had to reduce the amount of water, and used 2 1\2 cups rice. Worked out perfect!!
God bless you I've been making Spanish rice since I was 11 years old and I've never seen anybody make it like that I'm going to try it thank you for teaching me that and I hope you and your family have a blessed weekend 😇🌷🏠🌷🍧🌮🍞🍔🌮🍞🍔
My brother and I have been trying to make better rice than our Mom. She doesn't bake it and we just learned from watching her over the years. In the family she's the designated arroz person for every party. I'll have to use this as my secret weapon next time I make rice for her. Thanks Claudia!
I have been making Spanish rice for 30 years and I have never been happy with it. Some of the rice is not done and the rest is mushy. This recipe turned out exactly perfect just like a Mexican restaurant! I am so happy!!! Thank you so much Claudia!!! ❤
I just got done making this version and after successfully making your original and IP versions, I must say this oven version is foolproof and turned out perfect!!! I used my 6-qt. enameled dutch oven as it's the only ovenproof pan I have. Thanks for always looking out for us novices that want to learn. Cheers!
So I just made this. Came out amazing! I will add more garlic next time. It took me 45 minutes in the oven. I had to keep putting it back in. Flavor is great though! First time I feel like I cooked it perfectly. Thanks Claudia!❤
I just made this today and it came out perfectly! And it’s the first recipe I’ve tried that actually tastes the closest to my mom’s rice! We didn’t have the recipe written and so I’ve been on the hunt for a while. Thank you Claudia! Looking forward to buying your cookbook too! Best wishes always! Hugs from Texas 🤗💙🙏🏼🌟
Thanks to many methods of cooking mexican rice on youtube, including yours, I was able to recreate my abuela's rice recipe. She passed away 25 years ago and took me 20 years of trial and error to get the exact flavor she would make for us everyday. No other rice from other families would ever hit the flavors, texture and warmth like she did. And she was from the pueblitos of northern Tamaulipas, she did no such things as measurements, all by feeling, taste and eye balling.
My uncle that would sell Mexican food made rice extremely similar, but he also had some secret Achiote Paste recipe to make the rice come out so much more orange/red and adding some more earthy undertone to the rice. Your recipe is amazing.
Just made this recipe Friday night along with the chicken enchiladas and retried beans. Absolutely the best. I was impressed and so was my sister and brother-in-law. Every few bites was this is so tasty. Will not have to look any further for a recipe. Thank you for your recipes and the instructions are so easy.
This was the BEST Spanish rice recipe ever, I made this with your enchilada recipe last night for the first time and omg it tasted like I went to a restaurant
Made this to contribute to a dinner get together last night. You should be super happy to know that it came out perfect just like everything I have made from your channel. Excellent recipe and super authentic just like the restaurants around town. I have complete faith in your recipes, I know that if I follow the instructional video and recipe list (No substitutions) it will come out 100% every time. You can't always say that about recipes I've made plenty of lack luster recipes over the years, but not from you!! I appreciate your attention to detail and excellent videos and tips. Keep up the excellent work !!!
I seriously think some cookbooks contain "filler" recipes that look good but have never been tested before publishing. It's nice to get authentic recipes that have been perfected by the contributor over time. I have only made a few recipes from Claudia, but I fully trust anything she puts out.
Fantastic recipe! Takes all the variables and things that can go wrong out of the equation! We tried it tonight, came out absolutely perfect. Cooked perfectly, not overcooked or undercooked…. Fluffy and delicious! The only way from now on!! Thanks Claudia!!☺️
Nobody did because she has always credited her culinary experience being something she learned from her grandmother and didn't update people when she enrolled in school recently apparently. Lol
I went to culinary school and it’s a catch twenty two tbh. If you wanna learn how to cook just go on TH-cam and practice. Culinary school is for the technical skills
I've only ever tried with reading recipes for Mexican rice but I'm so glad I found your video because it never turned out right until now! I made it vegan by just replacing the tomato and chicken season portions with vegan bouillon cubes and it's perfect! Thank you for making this I was feeling hopeless lol
After making rice awhile now,I had only recently learned about using the tomato bouillon also. Makes sense to me. I had never seen it finished in the oven though. I will definitely try this. I just saved this so I can get your book! Good food served with family and good friends is still the best!
Made this for Christmas! This recipe comes out nice and fluffy. I doubled it so 4 cups and it was more than enough for 12 people. I only use the baking method now! It’s hard to mess up.
Just made this tonight and wow! what a difference from the last recipe I used. Came out fluffy and dry (just the way I like it,) and perfectly cooked. TY Claudia.
Thank you for sharing! I only make my rice like this now. It is perfect everytime. I set a timer and it's perfect. I love the flavor and texture. Thank you Claudia ❤
Claudia, coming from a super traditional Mexican family im always soooo annoyed not being a “woman of the kitchen” if it wasn’t for your beautiful delicious and detailed recipes I’d never cook! But you make it easy for me. Gracias amiga!! 🫶🏼♥️
We had a friend in California who was white white but she made the best Spanish rice i ever had in my life. And believe me I ate alot of rice lol. But I have gotten my recipe so stinking close and it's all in the tomato and carrots!
I did everything in my Ninja Foodie and it came out great! I added about 1/8 cup more water over the 4 cups. I skipped any heat this time, because I also made your green chili enchiladas, and those had enough heat for me. Thank you!
Hi Claudia! I just wanted to add to my remarks about loving this recipe(which is true, I do love it!). I have to watch my salt intake so I make my own adjustments. Low salt bullion is hard to find. This time I substituted low salt boxed broth for all my liquid. I make up for flavor sometimes by using something like red hot hot sauce or another brand if needed on my food when I eat. But if I’m eating with beans or fresh chilies, I’m good. I just wanted to say if salt in your diet is an issue there are ways around it.
It is the best. I just made it and it's the best mexican rice I've ever tasted. Thank you, Claudia! Serving with homemade refried beans and birria tacos. Yum...
Claudia you really are one in a million.. I have looked and looked for a recipe AUTHENTIC Spanish rice and beans and even though I have yet to make one of your dishes step by step, as this is my first time watching your video, I must say I’m sure when I go to make this, it’s going to taste the best. Thank you! Really and truly! I can’t wait for a video perhaps you already have one that I didn’t see in your videos of how to make red salsa and the red chile sauce. I’m not a fan of enchilada sauce but I love the red chile sauce..
My late Mexican bff taught me how to make Mexican rice on the stove which I love. I saved this process and I'm going to make it this Sunday for a family BBQ. Muchas gracias🙏
I made your chile relleno and it was perfect and wanted to do the mexican rice and I knew you would have a way to do it. This recipe seems perfect, I'm going to make it this weekend. I've always cooked rice traditionally but never added it to oil like this. I know its gonna be good. Thanks for the recipe!
The traditional way is always the best. Please don’t let the culinary school make you feel like they know better than you. I love watching your channel because I feel like you are very traditional and I love that you know how to cook from scratch, and that you teach me how to cook from scratch. I have so much respect for you just because of that. The best teachers are our mothers and our grandmothers. I love hearing that you went to culinary school. It can only better you and your skills. But I feel like you are already the best. Stay true to yourself and stay blessed! ❤
Why is everyone getting so butthurt about her mentioning culinary school? If there's a better or easier way to cook the same recipe, then that's called a win. Mexican cuisine is perfectly capable of adapting to modern cooking techniques, even when snobs give patronizing advice about "staying true to yourself." It's hella obnoxious.
Thank you for the recipe. I grew up with my mom cooking the rice, now in my family my wife doesnt cook so im learning since i actually like to cook. Wish me luck 😊
A lot of people don't like mushy rice, but me... i Don't know why but i like it is like i can taste the flavors better, especially when i mix it with other foods like beans or potato salad or with cheese and enchilada sauce. Omg I'm hungry too. 🤤😋
Great video and recipe Claudia, mi amigo David just told me today he made Mexican rice that came out so so... I forwarded him your video for perfecto delicious Mexican rice.. Thanks !!
Thank you Claudia!! I forgot to order Mexican rice for a family party ahead of time so I needed to make it. This was easy to follow along. My relatives and picky toddler loved it!! ❤❤❤
I'm looking forward to trying this. My rice has been ok in the past but I struggle to get it right every time. Sometimes all I want is rice and beans but I can't afford to eat out all the time.
Oh my!😮 Claudia it never crossed my mind to cook the rice in the oven! This is something new to me, and worth trying.👍 Thank you so much for sharing!! Be blessed.❤
I've been doing this method on my last 4-5 batches and it's magic!! I'm giving away my rice cooker! This is the only method I will ever use again! I came back to check the temperature for the oven because I couldn't remember. I am increasing my rice to 2 and 1/2 cups, and my liquid to 5 cups because I want a little extra rice. I hope it doesn't change the outcome. 🎉🎉
I use aged basmati rice from the Himalayas I buy in 20 pound bags almost exclusively. The last 20 pound bag I bought the other day was 27 dollars. I keep about 40 pounds on hand all the time. Rice doesn't go bad it gets better with age. Give it a try.
Ok going to try this bake it method, it's pretty much like the way a woman in Mexico told me only the way she told me is all on top of the stove. When I do it that way sometimes it's perfect, but sometimes it's not - I THINK your way has a better chance of always perfect.
My wife and I have been trying every “Mexican rice” under the sun. Look no further!! This rice is PERFECT! EVERY! SINGLE! TIME! Thank you, Claudia, just ordered your cookbook!
AGREED!!! It is so good. I saw your comment about the cookbook so now I just went and bought it too.

everything you've suggested has come out great thanks again for another cooking idea
I cooked this tonight and followed the recipe exactly. It was heavenly - definitely the best Mexican rice I ever had :)
…”and now for the best part” I love it ❤
Oh my!😮 Claudia it never crossed my mind to cook the rice in the oven! This is something new to me, and worth trying.👍 Thank you so much for sharing!! Be blessed.❤
I’ve been buying Trader Joe’s Spanish Rice, but it’s never enough and gets pricey, so this is perfect I bet to make my own. Thanks!
🎉GREAT RECIPE !!!!
For me, A new way to make it , thank you for your time and effort 👌🏼 😋👍🏼
Oh my goodness I need to try this! I would have never thought about using the oven for the rice. Looks DELICIOUS
I cannot wait to try this recipe. In the past, making Mexican rice has been an utter failure for me. I think this recipe is going to be it!!!
I've been doing this method on my last 4-5 batches and it's magic!! I'm giving away my rice cooker! This is the only method I will ever use again! I came back to check the temperature for the oven because I couldn't remember. I am increasing my rice to 2 and 1/2 cups, and my liquid to 5 cups because I want a little extra rice. I hope it doesn't change the outcome. 🎉🎉
I use aged basmati rice from the Himalayas I buy in 20 pound bags almost exclusively.
The last 20 pound bag I bought the other day was 27 dollars.
I keep about 40 pounds on hand all the time.
Rice doesn't go bad it gets better with age.
Give it a try.
Ok going to try this bake it method, it's pretty much like the way a woman in Mexico told me only the way she told me is all on top of the stove. When I do it that way sometimes it's perfect, but sometimes it's not - I THINK your way has a better chance of always perfect.
I love Mexican rice!! I love to learn how to cook it different ways. Thanks for showing me claudia ❤❤ love you
Oh girl you are so talented. I love that you are so passionate about your recipes. God Bless You! 😁
Looks delicious! I’m going to try this recipe next time I make rice 🍚😉
Thank you, Claudia!
Can’t wait to try this! Love how you put it in the oven!
Wow, I will diffidently make my rice in the oven. I tend to get the bottom part over cook on the stove. Thank you so much
Made this rice. Love it! It was perfect! Thank you Claudia.
Oh boy I can't wait to try it 🙏🥰💯
