Melt the butter in your pan and cook your bell pepper, onion and jalapeños for 3 minutes. Add in the garlic and stir for 30 seconds. Add in the rice and stir for 1 minute. Pour in the broth, mix and bring to a boil. Lower to a simmer and cover and cook for about 17-20 minutes or until your rice is done. You may have to add more broth. Rice times vary.
