I can understand the logic behind that for sure. I am definitely not the most precise when it comes to chopping and dicing, so a scale is something I should definitely invest in!

Yes, I use a digital scale to measure the ingredients. It's not necessary for a dish like this, but I like providing precise measurements so you can get as close to the dish I made at home. I generally don't use measurements like "1 tomato" because there are so many different sizes of tomatoes, and using cups is imprecise because how much you can fit in a cup depends on how small you chop them and how much you pack them into the cup. Digital scales can be had for around $10 on Amazon, and I think it's an essential kitchen tool. As for using metric vs imperial, I use US cups for volumetric measurements, but use metric for weight measures because of the problem you noticed (i.e. specifying .4 ounces looks ridiculous) and most digital scales have the option to switch between the two.

I learned a lot cooking through this with your helpful instructions and photos 🙂 The only problem I came across was in the measurements. For example, the ingredient list calls for 12 grams of garlic, or 200 grams of onion. When I converted it into imperial, it was even more confusing with 0.4 oz of garlic, for example. Do you use a kitchen scale to get all of these fine measurements? I kind of eyeballed it and it turned out okay, thank goodness!

It was a smash hit! I tweaked the spices a bit - added sazon and adobo to the marinade. Added roasted peppers to the rice. This is going to be a staple in our house from here on. Thank you for sharing this recipe!
