I use chile powder instead of fresh peppers. I am not a fresh chile person—am always worried they’ll be too hot! I also throw a bay leaf in, and for some reason, celery always makes it taste more Mexican to me. I’ve had it in Mexico with celery.

Andrea (FFC): Interesting, I bet the celery adds some nice contrasting texture. Re the chiles – I like spicy but not unreasonably hot. However, the chiles here primarily add aromatic flavor to the rice and do not impart much spicy heat. Leave them whole to reduce heat. You can substitute with chopped green bell peppers in lieu. Note, however, the whole or halved chiles are an extra treat for a guest who likes it picante and they add to the presentation.
