Preparation / Directions:
Chef Ralph Herrmann, La Mansion Del Rio
1. TO COOK THE RICE: Bring 2 cups of water to a boil, add the rice, cover and simmer for 17 minutes or until done. Set aside.
2. TO PREPARE THE PINEAPPLE: While the rice is cooking, preheat a non-stick skillet until it is very hot. Add the pineapple slice and cook over high heat, for about 2 minutes per side or until brown. Remove from the skillet and cut the pineapple into a fine dice; reserve for later.
3. TO ASSEMBLE THE RICE: In a saut‚ pan, heat the oil for 30 seconds. Add the green onion and garlic and saut‚ for a minute or until the green onion is tender. Add the pineapple, roasted red bell pepper, and pineapple juice and boil down until the liquid has almost entirely evaporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste and stir this mixture into the cooked rice.
