Arroz Con Pollo

This is Cai's delicious Arroz Con Pollo.  It proves that if you ask someone to make a dish so many time, eventually, they will give you the recipe:
Chicken Thighs (8-10)
1 Cup Pearl Rice

3 Chicken Broth
1 8oz Tomato Sauce
4 Cloves Garlic
1 Green Pepper
1 Yellow Onion
Manzanilla Olives
1 8oz Can LeSeur Petit Peas
8oz Beer
Pimentos
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 1/2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Pepper
1 Tbsp Oregano
3 Bay Leaves

Saute Chicken with minced garlic and onion in EVOO.
Add tomato sauce, stir and simmer a couple of minutes.
Add rice and 3 cups of chicken broth, salt, pepper, oregano, and bay leaves.  Add the green pepper (quartered).  Bring to a boil.
Add beer and reduce heat to a low simmer and cover.  When liquids start to get low, add olives, pimentos, and peas. Taste and adjust if the mixture looks too dry.
