Call it "Rice and Chicken", but Arroz con Pollo has a special connotation to some that is not resident in this recipe. Cilantro - NO. Ketchup - NO.
Worcesterschire Sauce - NO. I like variations to the theme, and am known as an improvisational cook, but Arroz con Pollo should be patented. This recipe, while not bad, was not good. Cilantro overpowers others flavors and the worcestershire sauce added an unnecesary tang. Not on my family's repeat list.

I've tried several recipes from this page. As a Hispanic woman wanted to try a different variation on the dish. It was probably one of the worst meals I've ever made. I hate to throw away food but the rest is going right in the trash......BOOO!!!!

This turned out well for me, the home made adobo was really really good. I followed all the directions except for the rice(I said to myself-I know how to cook rice lol-and I still added a little broth at the end to get the rice just rightand I only had a 1/2 cup of ketchup, and no cilantro. Oh and I only had black olives so that is what I used. MMMMMmmm! this is so good to me, it tastes great! It was easy and it did make a large pot:Even my picky 7 year old like it!

This recipe is delicioso! It is written wrong compared to how she made it. I used 2 cups of rice and 4 cups water ratio. Its only supposed to be half cup of ketchup but I used a little tomato paste based on familys preference of savory and spicy dishes. I also added some canned diced jalepeno and left out the olives but like I said before this is based on family's preference. I also recommend making Ingrid's adobo then store bought. I definitely will be making it again!

Made this for dinner tonight and loved it! I'm glad I read some of the reviews while waiting to make the rice and sofrito and made the following adjustments just like others suggested: Added 2 cups of rice (instead of 3 to 4 cups of liquid. Used half ketchup & half tomato paste adding to onions/peppers instead of into the rice. Added frozen peas and carrots after rice was halfway cooked. Lucky I had all the spices to make the adobo mix and that I think made it all delicious!

the recipe is wrong, not just in the proportion of water to rice (should be 2 cups of rice, as in the actual show but in where the ketchup goes in. Really frustrating to realize that AFTER you've gotten half way through!

Great recipie and it makes a whole lot more than the serving size says. My kids did not like the olives, so you might want to make them optional when feeding children.
