Main ingredientsrice, chicken, vegetables

Arroz con pollo (rice with chicken) is a traditional dish of Spain and Latin America, especially in Colombia, Cuba, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Panama, Peru and Puerto Rico. In the Dominican Republic it is called locrio de pollo, and Saint Martin where it is called lokri or locreo. The dish, which originated in Spain as a form of pilaf, is a staple throughout Latin America.[1][2][3][4][5]

Food writer Elisabeth Lambert Ortiz, while pointing to the international aspects of the dish, notes that its origin in Spain already reflected international influences: chicken was brought from India and rice from Asia; saffron was introduced by Phoenician traders; tomatoes and peppers are natives of the Americas.[1] In some recipes, ingredients include rice,[6] beer, stock,[6] sofrito (a mix of vegetables and fresh herbs), chicken,[6] and annatto. In some recipes, saffron is substituted for annatto.
