first you saute the sofrito with diced up ham.. i did not have ham so i used just the sofrito
once you do that for a while, you add the other ingredients, gandules, water, rice, olives, salchichas if you want...
close up of the gandules... they are yummy raw too... well, not really YUMMY... but i snacked on a few and they were good...
mix it up...
add the sazon and adobo...
and kaboom, you have your rice and beans and chicken dinner... looks yummy no?
and this angle looks yummy too... lol
add a few biscuits and you honestly feel like you're in heaven...
