I'm reviewing the recipe from Daisy's book Daisy: Morning Noon and Night, which I can only assume is the same. SO delicious, as has been every recipe of hers I've made. She really opened up my eyes to Latin cooking. If what you made is bland you are doing something seriously wrong. Make sure to use homemade sofrito! Between the sofrito, achiote oil, alcaparrado, spices, and chicken stock, this dish should be FULL OF FLAVOR. Wow, so delicious... Bravo!

This was quite a bit of work....did not care for the flavors at all...also, quite oily....in future I will stick to my usual way of making chicken and rice....much simpler, and much, much better flavor

The only serious problem I had with this is that after browning the chicken, which I did slowly, there was soooo much fat in the pan that I didn't want to procede. I tossed the annato oil and chicken fat that accumulated and started with some fresh annato oil to saute the sofrito. It would have been greasy beyond belief otherwise and also the freah annato has a better flavor

This recipe worked very well for our family. I was very happy with my first making of Achiote Oil.. it turned out nicely and is something I will be making in the future. The dish itself was very special and we all enjoyed the subtle combination of flavors.

This dish takes practice to get the rice not over cooked and the chicken to come out right. I did make my own Sofrito (less the Culantro - I could not find. It freezes great - put into an ice tray (this makes about 2 trays put in a zip lock bag and put in the freezer. I have also noticed great soffritos in little pouches at my latin market - I have not tried but will next time I make it.
I do make the following changes to daisy's recipe. I add one spanish Chorizo, finely diced Carrots, Red pepper, and spanish paprika - I also add one can of black beans.
This is a staple in my house. I have got the best results by using daisy method (one inch of liquid over the rice - use a wooden spoon to measure. I remove from the heat when not quite all of the liquid is absorbed and let it sit covered for about 20 minutes to finish absorbing the liquid and cooking the chicken. I love it this! it's an elegant way to make chicken, but it does take a few times to get it right.

Oh my God! I've been trying to make arroz con pollo the way my mom makes it. It always turned out ok, nothing special. But wow! This recipe! I finally got it right! The depth of flavors is incredible! Thank you Daisy!

I total agree with Sugerray37. I followed the instructions to the tee with the same out come; BLAND. The only good thing that I found was okay, was browning the chicken with the Achiote oil. This is not your grandmothers Arroz con Pollo.
