Fiesta Rice

This zesty rice, seasoned with peppers, onion and garlic powder, is cooked in spicy hot vegetable juice for added flavor. Monterey Jack cheese gets added at the end, to make a good side dish even better.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 small green pepper, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1 small onion, chopped (about 1/4 cup)
3 cups Spicy Hot V8®
0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup uncooked regular long grain white rice
0.5 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese(about 2 ounces)

Instructions

Heat the oil in a 2-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the pepper and onion and cook until they're tender-crisp, stirring occasionally.
Stir the V8®, garlic powder and rice in the saucepan and heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 20 minutes or until the rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed. Stir in the cheese.
