    Great recipe! Time consuming, but simple! Hubby (and I loved the flavor. Suggestion: use more liquid and less rice (as others have said 2 parts liquid to 1 part rice ratio. I used chicken drumsticks because that's all I had on hand, my grocer didn't stock annato seeds (achiote so that was left out of the seasoning - without missing it, and I used about half a jar of olives. Otherwise, followed exactly. Very delicious recipe!

    I've never made anything like this before and my family loves this dish and they are always asking me to make it. I did make a few adjustments based on what my family likes, I added capers and left out the carrots, green beans and peas. Do make the chicken and rice according to Ingrid's directions the flavors are worth the work! Plus the chicken is soooo moist.

    My whole family gobbles this dish up. Wasn't too sure about it at first. The olives through me off visually but I really really like it!

    I grew up eating this dish in South America, however, I never made it. I followed the recipe step by step and it came out a winner. My mom loved it! And regarding the ketchup, there is always ketchup with this dish in South America.

    Does anybody know if Simply Delicioso is coming for another Season in the Foodnetwork?

    We made this yesterday with chicken thigh meat and it was quite delicious. There was a bit of prep, but none of it too difficult, and overall the recipe was not that difficult. Overall, for the 1.25 hours it took, this was really worth it. We did leave out the olives, as the recipe came out *quite* salty overall. The saltiness may have been a result of the store bought adobo; its main ingredient was salt. I wanted to make my own, but my SO wanted to buy some. We'll definitely make it again, but next time with home made adobo. I look forward to trying other recipes from Ingrid's book and her show.

    This recipe is quite a bit of work but I must say it is well worth it. I have made it a few times now and everyone absolutely loves it. The recipe online does have a typo, you only need one cup of chicken stock for the entire recipe, just an FYI. I don't use the olives and I find that the longer it sits the better it tastes. I will make it in the morning and serve it for dinner or even make it a day ahead. All in all it's a great dish and everyone loves it!

    This recipe has too many items, i also tried the arroz con pollo from the fonda boriqua website, the restuarant that beat bobby flay in a throwdown with arroz con pollo, and man did it come out good. and iam not even a good cook.

    As you can see from all the other comments, this makes A LOT! I used about a 2 pound chicken and 1 cup of rice. Still would feed six people. A lot of prep for a pile of mush. The recipe states 4 cups of broth but then only has you use 1 cup. I did not add the green beans. Will not make again.

    I just made this dish today, and it is really delicious. However, I followed the measurments on TV more than the online recipe. Firstly, on tv she uses 2 cups of rice, and add's chicken broth. In the online recipe it states 3 cups of rice and add water.
    Also, on TV she add's ketchup to the bell pepper/onion mixture and then add's chicken. On the website it states to add ketchup to the rice first. and then add the bell pepper mixture to rice.
    I made the recipe with store bought ADOBO and it turned out awesome. I will also consider getting the store bought sofrito next time instead of making my own. But I did enjoy the bell peppers in the rice.
    And no way does this serve 4-6. It's more like 10 (even with two cups of rice. :
