Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Mayonnaise
    2 Tbsp. annatto paste
    1 broiler-fryer chicken (3 lb.), cut up, skin removed
    1 cup long-grain white rice, uncooked
    1 cup chopped onions
    1 red pepper, cut into strips
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    2 cups water
    1 chicken bouillon cube
    1/3 cup manzanilla olives, halved
    1 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro

Preparation

  • Mix mayo and annatto paste. Add half to chicken in large bowl; toss to coat.

    Cook chicken in large deep skillet or Dutch oven on medium-high heat 5 min. or until evenly browned, turning occasionally. Remove chicken from skillet; discard drippings. Cover chicken to keep warm.

    Top with olives and cilantro.
