Fall Favorite Recipes

Puerto Rican cooking shines in fall with cozy dishes that warm the heart and fill the home with familiar aromas. From stews and baked treats to hearty rice and meat dishes, these recipes celebrate comfort and tradition. Try Asopao de Pollo (Puerto Rican Chicken and Rice Soup), Arroz con Gandules (Rice and Pigeon Peas), or Instant Pot Puerto Rican Pernil (Pork Roast) for a taste of the season, and save room for Pumpkin Fritters (Barriguitas de Vieja) or Tembleque de Coco (no-Bake Coconut Custard), or a shot of Puerto Rican Coquito for dessert.
