step 1

Purée Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes (1 can) and White Onion (1) in a food processor. You’ll need 2 cups of the mixture. Preserve the rest for later, or for Mexican-style chicken soup.

step 2

In a medium saucepan, heat Avocado Oil (1/3 cup) over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes.

step 3

Toast Brown Rice (2 cups) in the oil, stirring frequently until it’s lightly toasted, about 8-10 minutes.

step 4

Add Red Chili Pepper (1) and Garlic (5 cloves), stir until combined.

step 5

Pour 2 cups of the tomato mixture and Chicken Bone Broth (2 cups) into the saucepan. Stir in Kosher Salt (1 tsp) and Ground Cumin (1/2 tsp). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover. Cook for 45 minutes, undisturbed. Do not uncover the pot to check the rice during cooking.

step 6

Remove from heat and let it stand for 10-15 minutes.

step 7

Stir in Fresh Cilantro (4 Tbsp) and juice of the Lime (1). Enjoy!
