arroz con pollo

Spanish chicken stew

Arroz con pollo (Spanish, "rice with chicken") is a Latin American and Spanish dish of chicken cooked with rice, typically seasoned with sofrito, saffron or annatto, and vegetables.

Regional variations abound—Cuban versions often include beer or olives, Puerto Rican versions add pigeon peas.

It's homestyle comfort food: My grandmother's arroz con pollo is still the best I've ever had.
