Restaurant-style Mexican Rice
  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a medium nonstick pot over medium-high heat until glistening.

  2. Add the rice and cook, stirring often, until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.

  3. Add the carrots, stock, tomato sauce, salt, and taco seasoning. Stir to combine.

  4. Increase the heat to high. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook, undisturbed, until the rice is tender, about 20 minutes.

  5. Remove from the heat and uncover. Fluff with a fork, cover, and let sit for 5 more minutes.

  6. Stir in the cilantro, if desired, and serve.
