Our family takes turns cooking Sunday dinner so we can all get together. I decided to do a mexican food night and everyone loved the rice. I did not have the saffron on hand so I left it out. I am planning to make it for a group of 70 for a mexican food day at work celebrating the 12 days of Christmas. I hope it goes over as well at work as it did at home.
Great!

This is the best Mexican rice recipe I've had. My sister made it one night when we were over and I couldn't eat enough. I made it a few days later and everyone loved it!
Definitely good, just not great

I made this recipe as a side dish for a fajita party I went to. It got mixed reviews from the crowd. Although some people thoroughly enjoyed it, others felt that the saffron was overpowering. The latter group said that the saffron seemed to overwhelm all other flavors in the dish, except the chorizo. I tended to agree that the saffron was a bit much; if I make this again, I will probably use a little less saffron, and a few more veggies.
Great mexican rice

this isn't really mexican rice. It's a neat recipe but mexican rice is so much more simple and you'll never get a disatisfied person. It was alittle too much for my family.
big hit at my party

So for my Cinco de Mayo party, in typical me fashion, I bit off more than I could chew and started to panic a little when I realised I hadn't made "the rice". Much to my surprise, it was remarkably simple to make and it was delicious. I made an enormous pot of it and there was not one grain left. I amonly writing this review because I have been asked by two different people for the recipe and thought it was only right to share how much of an impression this dish made on my guests. Enjoy!!!
Very good

Because my man doesn't eat pork or beef, I made this the other night using turkey tasso, it still came out really moist and good! It makes a lot, so be prepared for leftovers.
tasty

This is not instant or boxed rice so what you get tastes like a true gourmet dish. The flavor is full bodied especially if you use a homemade chicken stock. I have substituted a few of the ingredients like the chrizo for the andullie sausage which I had in the fridge and it turned out great. Overall great recipe!
Loved This!

This recipe has much more ingredients than original mexican rice. We don't usually add chorizo or pork, or lard! Mexican rice is much more simple but with lots of flavor!
Best Mexican (Spanish) Rice I've tried

Really excellent - depends, of course of quality of chorizo you get. Now, if I only truly LIKED Spanish Rice, I would have given it 5 stars. Everyone else at my "Make Your Own Burrito" party loved it, and I actually enjoyed it as much as it is possible for me to do so! (Weird review, I know).
Great!

This is a great recipe. Really flavorful and colorful. I did NOT use the saffron (I'm a college student and that stuff is like $14 for a small amount--no way) and put more chorizo--I love chorizo! I used my grandmother's adobo crollo (puerto rican version of seasoned salt), more oregano and cilantro to make up for the lack of saffron.
We love it!

The first time, I made this dish was for my sons homecoming from Iraq in the spring of 2007. We had a party with about 40 people there and I made Mexican food. This rice was a big hit. I used shortening instead of lard and no pork. Since then I have made this recipe a number of times. We love it! And it's a lot of fun to make.
