Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Add 3 drumsticks and 3 thighs to the Dutch oven and cook until browned on both sides, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove the chicken pieces with a slotted spoon and set aside. Repeat with the remaining drumsticks and thighs.
• Add the onions and peppers to the pot and cook until the onions are translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and saute for about 1 minute. Add the paprika, cumin, saffron and bay leaves, stirring until incorporated. Next, add the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, beer, rice and 1 teaspoon salt; mix well. Bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer.
• Return the chicken pieces to the pot, cover, and transfer to the oven for 20 minutes. Remove the pot from the oven, add the peas and pimientos, then cover and return to the oven until the rice is completely tender, another 5 to 10 minutes.

Steps:

• In a paella pan or wide, shallow pan with a tight-fitting lid, heat the Achiote Oil over medium-high heat until the oil is rippling. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and add as many pieces skin side down to the pan as fit without touching. Cook, turning as necessary, until well browned on all sides, about 10 minutes. Remove the pieces as they are done and set aside. Adjust the heat under the pan, especially after you start removing chicken, so the chicken browns without the oil darkening.
• When all the chicken is removed from the pan, add the Sofrito and alcaparrado. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Raise the heat to high and boil until most of the water is evaporated from the Sofrito. Add the cumin and cloves.
• Stir in the rice until coated with oil. Return the chicken to the pan, pour in enough broth to cover the rice by the width of 2 fingers (about 1-inch), and bring to a boil. Cook over high heat until the level of liquid reaches the rice. Stir gently and reduce the heat to low. Cover the pan and cook until the liquid is absorbed, the chicken is cooked through, and the rice is tender but firm, about 20 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork. The arroz con pollo can be brought to the table right in the pan or transferred to a large serving platter. Either way, garnish with the red pepper before serving.
• Heat the oil and annatto seeds in a small skillet over medium heat just until the seeds give off a lively, steady sizzle. Don't overheat the mixture or the seeds will turn black and the oil will turn a nasty green. Once they're sizzling, remove the pan from the heat and let stand until the sizzling stops. Strain and reserve in a jar with a tight-fitting lid at room temperature for up to 4 days.
• Chop the onion and Cubanelle or Italian peppers in the work bowl of a food processor until coarsely chopped. With the motor running, add the remaining ingredients 1 at a time and process until smooth. The sofrito will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. It also freezes beautifully.

Steps:

• Put chicken in a large baking dish.Use a knife and stab the chicken on both sides about 50 times piercing the skin.
• Sprinkle Adobo all over both sides very heavily.
• Take Season-All and sprinkle medium amount on both sides.
• Rub gently into skin then lay skin side up and sprinkle a little more Adobo all over top.
• Cover with plastic wrap and leave over night in refrigerator.
• COOKING METHOD.
• Cover chicken and bake at 325 for 1 1/2 hrs or until nearly done.
• Uncover and brown top as desired.

Steps:

• Season Chicken with garlic salt, salt & pepper. Put a small amount of oil in a large pot, brown chicken on medium high heat, but don't cook all the way through.
• Add the garlic and onion and cook for a few minutes. Add the potatoes, carrots, tomato sauce, cilantro, and sazon or cumin.
• There should be enough liquid to cover most of the food, if it looks like it needs a little more liquid add either another can of tomato sauce or some water.
• Reduce heat to low and cook until the chicken and veggies are done, I usually cook it for at least an hour, the longer the better though, because as the potatoes break down they thicken the sauce.
• Serve with hot white rice, beans and slices of avocado. Yummy.

Steps:

• Using paper towels, pat chicken dry. Season chicken with Adobo. Heat oil in caldero, or large heavy pot over medium heat. Cook chicken, in batches, until brown on all sides, 7-10 minutes; set aside.
• Stir onions, peppers and garlic into pot; cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add rice, bouillon and Sazon to pot; cook, stirring constantly, until rice is completely coated in oil mixture, about 1 minute.
• Stir in 3 cups water; bring to a boil. Add alcaparrado and chicken (skin-side up) to pot. Cover pot, reduce heat to low and simmer until water is absorbed, rice is tender and chicken is cooked through, about 25 minutes.
• To serve, using fork, fluff rice; garnish with pimiento strips and peas.

Steps:

• Put all the ingredients except the rice into a 6-quart pot and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.
• Add the rice, return the pot to the boil and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes more, or until the rice is tender. Serve with a green salad.

Steps:

• Dice the peppers and onions into 1/8" by 1/8" pieces, or a little larger if you wish.
• Coarsely chop the cilantro.
• Set aside.
• The Adobo seasoning this recipe mentions is not the one RecipeZaar thinks it is. It is the one you will find in the Mexican food area with the tacos and other Mexiocan inspired foods. For all reference of it in this recipe, season to taste as it is salty.
• Season the chicken with Adobo seasoning and oregano.
• Brown the chicken in the pan you will cook the dish in (large pot, tall enough to hold everything together when finished cooking).
• Remove the chicken and add in your sofrito (the diced peppers, onions, and cilantro), some adobo seasoning to taste, and sautee until the onions become slightly translucent.
• Stir the rice into the mixture.
• Add the chicken stock.
• Add the browned chicken.
• Bring to a boil.
• Once boiling, reduce heat to a simmer, put lid on the pan, and cook for 40 minutes. High altitude may need to add an additional 5 - 8 minutes cooking time.
• DO NOT open the lid to check on it. Just be sure that you have it at a simmer when you put the lid on.
• When the time is up, open to reveal the most incredible Puerto Rican Arroz Con Pollo!
• You may also add 1lb of smoked sausage to give this an additional layer of flavor. Substitute 1c chicken stock for water if you do to cut down on the saltiness.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In the bowl of a food processor, combine peppers, onion, garlic, cilantro, and 1 tablespoon oil. Season with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Puree until smooth.
• In a small bowl, combine coriander, chili powder, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pat chicken dry and season all over with spice mixture. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large, straight-sided ovenproof skillet or braiser pan over medium-high. Add chicken in a single layer, skin-sides down, and cook, flipping once, until browned on both sides, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add rice to skillet; cook, stirring occasionally, until nutty-smelling and opaque, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in cilantro mixture and cook until mostly absorbed, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in broth, 1 cup water, bay leaf, and peas. Return chicken and any accumulated juices to skillet in a single layer, skin-sides up. Bring to a boil. Scatter capers and olives over top, then cover and transfer to oven. Cook until a thermometer inserted into thickest part of chicken (near but not touching bones) reads 165 degrees, 30 to 35 minutes. Serve, garnished with more cilantro.

Steps:

• Combine all the seasoning ingredients in a mortar and pestle and mash it all together, set aside. If you don't have a mortar and pestle you can do this in a food processor. Take 3 pounds of chicken and trim off any excess skin, but do not remove the skin. Next, cut the chicken into chunks leaving the bone in. Using your biggest knife cut into the flesh of the chicken until you reach the bone, lay a towel over the back of the knife and pound it until it cuts through the bone. Do not saw into the bone because it can cause it to splinter. Lay the chicken in a glass dish (do not use metal as it could react with the vinegar) and pour seasoning over the chicken. Massage the seasoning evenly into the chicken. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight. When ready to prepare chicken, heat enough oil to cover chicken in a large pot or Dutch oven. Heat oil to 400 degrees. While the oil heats combine flour, Sazon and pepper in a large zip loc bag, shake to combine ingredients. In batches, place chicken in the flour bag and shake until well coated. Shake off excess flour and place on baking grid until all chicken pieces are coated. When oil reaches 400 degrees, fry chicken pieces in batches for 3 minutes. Remove from oil and drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Once you've finished with all of the chicken, lower the heat of the oil to 300 degrees and place all of the chicken back into the pot. Cover and fry for 10 minutes. Remove chicken from oil and drain on a paper towel lined plate. Raise the heat again to 400 degrees. Fry the chicken in batches until dark golden brown, without burning. Remove chicken from oil and drain on paper towel lined plate. Ready.....set.....EAT! NOTE: Could you fry it without chopping it into chunks? Yes but it does take longer to cook. The goal with this chicken is when you fry it you get a crispness close to crispy pork rinds. I do not recommend using boneless chicken because the bone is what makes the meat juicy and tender. Removing the bone can cause your chicken to dry out. Finally don't skimp on the 3 time fry! It is essential to getting that perfect crisp to the skin.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat vegetable oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat; cook and stir chicken pieces until browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove chicken with a slotted spoon and place on a plate. Cook and stir onion, green bell pepper, minced garlic, and whole garlic cloves in the same Dutch oven until onion is softened, about 5 minutes.
• Return chicken to the onion mixture. Add tomatoes, rice, salt, oregano, black pepper, and bay leaf. Pour in enough chicken stock to cover all the ingredients.
• Bake chicken-rice mixture in the preheated oven until rice is tender and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 1 hour and 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Stir peas, olives, raisins, and pimento peppers into the chicken-rice mixture. Bake until warmed through, an additional 15 minutes.
