Spanish Rice

Ingredients
2 T. oil
1/4 c. chopped onion (I use dried onion flakes)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 c. long grain rice (uncooked)
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground pepper
1 8-oz can tomato sauce
1 1/2 c. chicken broth OR water & chicken bullion
1 can black or kidney beans (optional)
cooked chicken breast cut up (optional)
1 cup frozen corn (optional)

Heat oil in skillet over medium high heat. Add onion, garlic, and rice and cook, stirring constantly, until rice is golden brown. Add remaining ingredients. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20-30 minutes until rice is tender.
I serve this as a main dish with cheese, tortillas, sour cream, etc. It's one of Jared's favorites!!
