INSTRUCTIONS

4

1 hr

  • Cut the cured beef and brown it in a pot with a little oil. Remove and set aside.
  • In the same pot, break up the angel hair pasta and toast it with a tablespoon of butter until it turns an even golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  • In the same pot, add a little oil and sauté the garlic. Add the rice and cook until translucent.
  • Pour in the dark soda, chicken broth, salt to taste, and toasted noodles. Cover and cook over medium-low heat for 18 to 20 minutes, until the rice is tender and the liquid is fully absorbed.
  • Return the browned beef, add the raisins and pecans, and fluff the rice with a fork. Finish with a dollop of butter and let it rest.
  • Serve with finely chopped parsley for freshness and color.

TIPS

  • For a crispier texture, add the toasted noodles back in at the end of the rice cooking time.
