Mexican Rice

Place skillet on stove over medium high heat and coat the bottom of the pan with oil. Add in rice and brown, stirring continuously to ensure it doesn't burn. As rice begins to turn a light golden color, add in chopped onion and continue stirring until onion is soft and rice is golden. Next, add in the tomato sauce, the salt, the cumin, the hot water, and the chicken bouillon and mix well. (This is the last time you will stir.) When it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover pan with lid, and let cook untouched for 15 minutes. (Do not remove the lid during this time.) After 15 minutes, remove from stove, but leave lid on, and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes. Then remove lid and fluff rice with a fork. It should be cooked to perfection.
