Right as we were leaving Patchogue for JFK a couple of weeks ago, my mom began making arroz con pollo. She has made this dish forever, and it used to be one of my favorites. I found myself envious and announced an intention to get home and make it with jackfruit, so that’s what I did. This is a good central dish for a pot luck or big dinner gathering that doesn’t break the bank—you should also feel very free to halve this. It's not something I would recommend if you’re not comfortable cooking rice on the stove, though. If you are, go forth confidently!
