Basmati Spanish Rice

1 tbs olive oil
1 c basmati rice
1/2 tsp. onion powder (or 1/2 a diced onion)
1/2 tsp. garlic powder (or 1 large garlic clove)
1 can stewed mexican style tomatoes (puree in blender) with water to equal 2-3/4 cups (plus more water if needed)

Heat olive oil in a large skillet with lid. Add rice and brown lightly. Add onion and garlic powder. Slowly add tomatoes and water. Bring to a boil stirring continually. Simmer on low heat, covered for 30 minutes or until rice is moist.
(in the pictures I used fresh green onion chopped)

Awesome! I've been looking for a homemade spanish rice recipe. Have you ever tried it with brown rice?
