Add garlic - sauté till can smell it about 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in hot stock or water ñ warm tomato salsa mixing well. Pour into a 4 quart baking dish or casserole. Cover with foil bake till liquid is absorbed ñ rice is tender- about 30 to 40 minutes. Stir- remove serrano chiles if desired or chop first leaving them in but seed them first- serve hot.
