One of my favorite dishes of all time. I lived in Miami for many years and Authentic Cuban Arroz con Pollo is without comparison in my opinion. This is how I prepare it in my house and it is simply wonderful! You can take the chicken off the bone as well and mix with the rice, but I have always enjoyed eating it right off the bone.
