Place the vegetable oil, sofrito, sazón with achiote, gandules, olives, capers, onion soup and tomato sauce in a big pot!.
Thoroughly wash rice and add to the other ingredients!.
Pour water over the ingredients and stir well!.

Boil on medium high until all the water is absorbed!.
Reduce heat to low and cover the pot with aluminum foil* and lid!.
Cook for 35-40 minutes, depending on your stove!.
