Arroz con Pollo is a classic one-pot Cuban dish made by simmering bone-in chicken pieces with long-grain rice, bell peppers, onions, garlic, peas, and tomato sauce, all seasoned with saffron or bijol (annatto) to give the rice its vibrant yellow color. Popular throughout Latin America, the Cuban version often includes beer or broth, and is commonly served at family gatherings and holiday meals. The dish originates from Spanish paella traditions, but evolved in Cuban home kitchens into a saucier, more comforting version.
Common variations include Arroz con Pollo a la Chorrera (a wetter, stew-like style) and Arroz Amarillo con Pollo found in restaurants.
