  1. Valerie REVIEW:

    A tasty dish, although I don't believe "classic" arroz con pollo calls for boneless chicken the flavors work well and overall it has a nice texture.

  2. minnie*** REVIEW:

    My family loved this one and asked for repeats! Even though I didn't have capers or pimientos they still tasted so good and my daughter liked the chicken succulent and not too dry. The second day I added Pork chop cuts to the recipe and it tasted similar to Arroz Valenciana.

  3. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    This is delicious! I used packaged rice and will most likely opt for something less processed next time. This will definitely become one of our staple meals.
