My favorite rice recipe is definitely risotto, and I only use arborio rice when making it. But I had no clue that they make a jalapeno one now! I am definitely going to be on the look out for it the next time I am out shopping- yum! :)
You have made some darn good risotto recipes, Carrie! You would love this jalapeno arborio rice. Mmm, I’m thinking about your beer bacon risotto and I think it would be great made with the jalapeno risotto!
Julie, you have the BEST skillet meals!! I love enchiladas, and this sweet potato fall twist sounds perfect!! :)
Thank you, Renee!
That is my FAVORITE brand of Arborio rice and I have never tried it with the jalapeno. Had no idea that existed and it’s on my grocery list now. My favorite rice recipe is my creamy mushroom risotto. Thanks for the giveaway!
This looks so delicious, Julie! Pinned!
You’ve GOTTA try it, Claire! It’s so good. Plus, I heart jalapenos so this rice is PERFECT!!!
Also, I would gobble up all of the mushroom risotto. YUM!
This looks delicious! My favorite rice recipe is for Mexican red rice!!
Thanks, Nichi!
I love homemade Mexican rice! Like what you get on the side of your food at a Mexican restaurant. It’s so good and easy to make at home. I love this idea of an Arborio blend that is seasoned, so clever. And I’m sure your recipe would be a new rice favorite in my house hold!
OH I LOVE the Mexican rice too, Meggan! I may have to hit up my favorite Mexican restaurant for lunch tomorrow so I can get some!
I love all your skillet recipes! They are so delicious and flavourful! What a great dish for fall… so warming and comforting.

Thanks for this recipe. My family thinks rice is a requirement several times a week. I just tried this Sweet Potato Enchiladas Skillet Casserole. We loved it – even the veggies. Now I have a new favorite dish – and all in one pan.
We really enjoyed this recipe. Don’t know why my pc would not let me put 4 stars, which this recipe deserved!
Thank you for stopping by to let me know you enjoyed the recipe, Sue! I’m not sure why it isn’t working either but I will look into it. Thanks for the heads up. :)

I hope you enjoy the recipe, Sharon!
I make a mean homemade chicken fried rice recipe.
My favorite rice side dish is simple to make in my rice cooker, but it’s really tasty, and it depends on good rice. I soften chopped onions in a bit of oil with a dash of salt, then stir in the rice. Then comes the water (and/or stock). A little dried thyme at the beginning or fresh thyme toward the end, and it’s a great basic but flavorful side. It’s also easy to change up the flavoring to match the main course, too.

My favorite rice recipes is Spaghetti Rice Stuffed Green Peppers! I cook the rice and hamburger, and then mix with spaghetti sauce and mozzarella cheese. I stuff the peppers and put extra sauce on top. I cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes at 350..then take off the foil and put a little extra cheese on top. One of our families favorites!

I loved this. It was pretty easy to make, just worried that it wouldn’t all fit in my 11 inch skillet. Might do a bigger pan next time to be safe, but will be making again and again!
Hi Athena!
SO glad you enjoyed this recipe! I made it in a 12 inch casserole skillet and there was more than enough room in that so you may want to try that size next time! I found my skillet for a decent price at Homegoods (I’m pretty sure it was less than $30)
Have a great week and a happy Thanksgiving, if you’re celebrating! :)

I can’t seem to find the jalapeno blend of this brand of rice (of course they have every other flavor) in my stores. Do you have any suggestions for an alternative so I can make this? thanks
Hi Kendra,
I would suggest using the Rice Select plain arborio rice and then adding a fresh chopped jalapeno to the skillet along with the zucchini, red chili peppers and chipotle peppers (step 2).
Hope this helps. :)
