Burkina Faso: Riz Gras AKA Fat Rice

CLICK HERE FOR THE RECIPE I USED

I've made a lot of chicken and rice dishes since embarking upon this culinary adventure and I think this is my favorite of them all. So far.

I did make a couple of adjustments. I cannot handle the heat level of Habanero peppers so I substituted with Serrano peppers instead. I really like the flavor of Serranos and they have just the right amount of heat for me. I also added more garlic than the recipe called for. Three cloves just didn't seem enough. I am a garlic fiend, so, what I think is enough garlic is probably what others would feel is a bit more than enough. I have no regrets though, it turned out wonderfully flavorful.

I will definitely make this again!
