Ingredients

2 pounds boneless pork loin cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic minced
1/2 teaspoon annatto ground
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 jalapeno chiles minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups long grain rice extra
1 1/2 cups frozen peas thawed

Directions

1

Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add pork cubes and saute until browned on all sides. Add the garlic, annatto, paprika, cayenne, jalapenos and salt and cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
2

Add 4 cups of water and bring to a boil over high heat. Cover and reduce heat to a low; simmer for about 1 1/2 hours or until pork is tender. Drain the liquid from the pot into a glass measuring cup (measure in batches if needed) to make sure you have 4 cups of liquid remaining to cook the rice. If needed, add water to equal 4 cups. Return liquid to pot and increase heat to high; stir in rice and peas, bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to low; simmer for about 20 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed.

Serve with a green salad or vegetable.
