    While the flavor was good, it's obvious (in retrospect the proportions of broth to rice is wrong in this recipe. Will make again, but next time with half the rice or twice the broth. Perhaps Food Network should alter the recipe?? And, folks, please, please do not rate the recipe if you haven't made it.

    This was so delicious! I think it was a combination of the annatto seeds and the sofrito. I couldn't believe I could find annatto seeds here in Vermont! I will definitely be making this again, as well as using sofrito to flavor my rice from now on.

    Made this for a company dinner and it was very bland. Perhaps if I had used more achiote and sofrito than the recipe called for it would have been tastier. I would not make this recipe again and I was very disappointed to serve my comapny a boring meal. (Although the salad on the same show got rave reviews.

    This recipe was amazing! ? My husband (who is Porto Rican was blown away by the flavors. When making this in the past we have both used Goya Sofrito, which is good but the homemade product is so much better. I can?t even compare the two, almost like caned tomato sauce and your mothers. I took someone who posted here?s advise and used half the amount of rice ? I would use 3 cups, maybe 4, 2 cups wasn?t enough ? also I would add more Sofrito, as it adds an amazing flavor. Daisy, thanks for the great recipe, I felt like I was back on the island!

    Ms. Daisy, Congratulations on your new show I'm glad to see a new face sharing traditional family recipes on the Food Network. I made the arroz con pollo but did not taste that good. Two main ingredients I was not able to get such as culantro and ajices. In the state were I live we do not have to many latin stores.
    Can you recommend a alternative for culamtro and ajices?

    Thank you,
    Laura
