We finally got to try the Arroz con Pollo today! We really liked it. I did however think the rice was a little on the mushy side. There wasn’t any excess liquid when I added the olives and peas so I kept the lid on for the last 20 minutes.

I think you said at some point that you have tried other rices. I’m thinking of trying long grain brown rice next time.

It worked out really well with the boneless skinless chicken thighs. I have another pack of b/s chicken thighs in the freezer. We got them for $1.50 for 2 lb packages, so I stocked up at the time! lol

Glad you liked the Arroz con Pollo!

Did you use the converted rice? We never seem to have a problem with it being mushy unless we use a different kind of rice. It has been mushy when we tried other kinds of rice, so we always use the converted rice for this recipe.

Wow, that is a great price on chicken thighs. About the best I ever find around here is 99 cents per lb., so I stock up then.
