Steps
- 1 Over medium heat, in a large saucepan cook onion and garlic in hot oil for about 5 minutes or until onion is tender. Stir in broth. Bring to a boil; add uncooked rice, oregano, black pepper, salt, and paprika. Simmer covered for about 40 minutes or until rice is tender. Remove from heat and stir in tomatoes, corn, and cilantro.
