Preparation:

Sauté the bell peppers, onion, and garlic in the oil. Cook over low heat for 5 minutes to wilt the vegetables.

Add the rice and cook, stirring for 2 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients except the scallions. Stir, cover, and cook over medium-low heat until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 20 minutes.

Add the scallions and gently combine. Serve hot.
