An easy meal prep recipe featuring sofrito sauce, black beans, cherry tomatoes, steak, rice, and lettuce, with detailed instructions for making both sofrito and Spanish yellow rice.
1: Heat the olive oil and sauté the onions for about 7 minutes.
2: Add the green pepper, garlic, tomatoes, and spices; stir and cook for another 10-15 minutes until the tomatoes have softened and the consistency has thickened slightly.
3: To make the Spanish yellow rice, sauté scallions, cilantro, and garlic for about 2 minutes until tender.
4: Add tomatoes and cook until they're tender.
5: Add rice, chicken broth, and seasoning.
6: Let the broth boil on high heat stirring a few times.
7: As the water boils down and just barely skims the top of the rice, reduce heat to very low and cover for 15 minutes.
8: After 15 minutes, let it sit at least 5 more minutes without touching the lid and then serve.
