Green rice recipe
Arroz Verde (Mexican Green Rice)
Rice cooked in a blended sauce of cilantro, poblano and garlic: a fluffy, herby side for any Mexican meal.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups long-grain white rice
- 1 cup packed Latin Specialties Cilantro leaves and tender stems
- 1 Latin Specialties Poblano, roasted and peeled
- 2 cloves Latin Specialties Garlic
- 2 ¼ cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 2 tbsp oil, ¼ Latin Specialties Onion, salt
Method
- Blend the cilantro, poblano, garlic and onion with 1 cup of the broth until smooth.
- Toast the rice in the hot oil for 3 to 4 minutes until it turns lightly golden, then pour in the green sauce and the remaining broth. Season with salt.
- Bring to a boil, cover and cook on low heat for about 18 minutes. Rest covered for 5 minutes and fluff with a fork.
TipToast the rice before adding the liquid: it keeps the grains separate.
