Directions

Prep: 10 min.
Wash and drain 1.5 Cup Rice according to the package directions or until the water runs clear (about 3 times).
Dice Onion and Peel Garlic. Set aside separately.
Cook: Sauce - 20 min. (Stovetop)
Prepare the rice according to the package instructions.
Meanwhile, heat a large skillet on medium heat. Add Olive Oil and Wheat Flour to the skillet. Cook for about 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture starts to brown. Add the diced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Add the rest of the sauce ingredients, including Diced Tomatoes, Tomato Sauce, Cumin, Oregano, Cayenne Pepper, Chili Powder, Broth, Salt, and Pepper.
Simmer for 5 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken and flavors develop. Adjust as needed. For a thinner sauce, add 1 Tbsp Broth at a time until at the desired consistency.
