MEXICAN GREEN RICE



Mexican Green Rice image

Roasted poblano peppers are the key to this authentic Mexican Green Rice. I've also been adding a handful of spinach to it lately. So good!

Provided by Patrick Calhoun | Mexican Please

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup rice
2 poblano peppers
10-15 sprigs cilantro
1 handful spinach (optional)
1/2 onion
1 garlic clove
2 cups stock
1/2 teaspoon salt
olive oil

Steps:

  • Roast the poblano peppers in the oven for 20-25 minutes. You can flip them over halfway through the roasting period if you want.
  • De-stem and de-seed the poblanos. Add them to a blender along with 10-15 sprigs of cilantro, a handful of spinach, 1/2 onion, and 1 garlic clove. Combine well.
  • Add a dollop of oil to a saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 cup of rice and cook until opaque and starting to turn golden brown, stirring regularly. This should only take a couple minutes so keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
  • Add the blender puree to the rice and cook for a couple minutes, stirring regularly. Add 2 cups of stock and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Stir well, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and let cook until all of the liquid is absorbed, approximately 15-20 minutes.
  • Remove from heat. Give a stir and cover the rice, letting it sit in its own steam for a few minutes.
  • Take a final taste for salt level, adding more if necessary. Serve immediately and store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.

ARROZ VERDE (MEXICAN GREEN RICE)



Arroz Verde (Mexican Green Rice) image

Nice Mexican twist on boring old rice. If you can't find parboiled rice at your grocery store, long-grain rice may be substituted, but just won't be quite as yummy.
