Arroz Central Cafe Central Cafe Rice


This is a local dish. Central cafe is a nice little restaurant and this recipe comes from seasoned with sun. A wonderful cookbook by the junior leage of el paso. I made a few changes..of course! The original recipe calls for long grain rice and long green chiles, roasted and peeled. You can make it their way or mine, your choice.
