Spanish Rice

This was a great side dish. It had lots of flavor. I found the recipe on line and tweaked it a bit for our taste.  Here's what we came up with:

Ingredients:
2 Tb butter
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1 small carrot, finely chopped
1 cup of white rice, rinsed well
1 can of chicken broth
1 can of mexican style tomatoes, juice drained
1 tsp of chili powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder

Directions:
1. Melt the butter in a large skillet.
2. Add onion, pepper, and carrots.  Cook until veggies are soft.
3. Add rice and fry until browned.
4. Mix in broth, tomatoes, and chili powder.
5. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat. Simmer covered for 20 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed.
