Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, combine rice and water or broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until water is absorbed and rice is cooked. Let stand, covered, for 5 minutes.
⏱️ 25 minutes - 2
While the rice cooks, heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or pan over medium heat. If using achiote seeds, add them to the oil and cook for a minute until the oil turns red, then strain and discard seeds. If using powder, stir it into the hot oil.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 3
Add chopped onion and bell pepper to the skillet and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
