"Please read the entire recipe before attempting to make this dish. You will need the Olive and Pepper Mix that I am unable to list in the ingredients, but is listed in the instructions. I've been working on an Arroz Con Pollo based on Throwdown with Bobby Flay. This is my rendition of the Al Fonda Boriqua version, who was the winner of the Throwdown...."

Ingredients: ground cumin, dried oregano...

"The recipe is very flexible in the type of chiles used. Blend a couple of types for complexity. The dish is also great for splashing on your favorite hot sauce too. You can also add beer instead of water when things are looking a bit too dry. It also can be fun to mix in a few different types of beans, like black beans and pintos. It isn't a requirement..."

Ingredients: dried pinto beans, fresh cilantro...

"Yellow Rice with Pigeon Peas - translated. You won't believe how much flavor can be packed into such an understated dish. This is a pull-out-the-stops version of the dish. The secret is a well-seasoned sofrito. Make enough sofrito to double the recipe & it would be a waste of good ingredients. You can freeze the sofrito for
about a month...."

Ingredients: cilantro, cubanelle peppers...

"This is one of the few Cuban dishes that is a little spicy, rather, it is redolent with garlic and tomatoes and the succulent flavor of fresh-caught shrimp. As all Cuban favorites, it is served with white rice and either ripe or green plantains. Add a green salad and garnish with some cilantro and you're good to go. Delicious!"

Ingredients: fresh ground black pepper, dry white wine...

"Pastelon is a Puerto Rican dish first recommended to me by one of my nurses, who is from Puerto Rico. Picture a lasagna, but instead of noodles for the separating layers, you use plantains. It's SO good! There are many variations, but this is how I prepare it. Plus, a lot of the common additions to Pastelon - like capers, olives or raisins, if..."

Ingredients: eggs, sazon goya...

"This was an interesting idea and I'm definitely going to come up with other fillings for this omelette as well. The plantains are a bit sweet and the garlic cashew cheese compliments them very nicely. I think sauteed onions, garlic, bell peppers, avocado, roasted red peppers, tomatoes, and diced fried potatoes in any combination would work as..."
