Arroz Imperial Con Pollo – Imperial Rice With Chicken,A favorite recipe among Miami-based Cubans. It is ideal for a luncheon or even for a brunch(so they tell me) because it is light, yet flavorful. Slightly labor-intensive but it is well worth the work. Great comfort food! Serve with an Argentinian Merlot Trumpeter or Beringer Alluvium white. Also, a nice salad of mixed greens and a deliciously cool fresh fruit dish. Found on cooksrecipes.com where I was able to put the exact quantities along with the ingredients.,Good recipe but added Adobo to the rice and used Sofrito and Recaito instead of tomato sauce to make it more traditional and add a lot more flavor. Never took out the bacon just drained the excess grease to add more flavor to chicken,Good recipe but added Adobo to the rice and used Sofrito and Recaito instead of tomato sauce to make it more traditional and add a lot more flavor.
