To prepare Goya Yellow Rice, you typically combine the contents of the package with water and butter or oil in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender. The exact cooking time and liquid ratio are usually detailed on the package. Stirring occasionally can help ensure even cooking and prevent sticking. It's a straightforward process that results in a flavorful and colorful rice dish ready in under 30 minutes.
