Mexican Rice

This recipe comes from my favorite food blog, Plain Chicken.  It's quick and easy and has just the right amount of kick!

Mexican Rice
Adapted from Plain Chicken

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup uncooked white rice
2 cups chicken broth
1 can diced tomatoes and green chilies, drained and pulsed in food processor
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 teaspoons chili powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Heat oil over medium heat in a medium skillet.  Add rice, stir to coat rice in oil and cook until the rice starts to toast and turn brown.  Add remaining ingredients and stir.  Cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
