Preparation / Directions:
Spray a flame proof, oven proof casserole with Pam or similar product, or spread a bit of canola or safflower oil in the bottom. Simmer onion and garlic together for two minutes. Add red pepper and simmer an additional ten minutes, adding a bit of water if needed to prevent sticking and burning. Add spices and rest of ingredients. Cover and heat on stove top until water simmers. Bake in covered casserole in 350-deg F oven for about a half hour. Fluff rice before serving.
