Green Rice
 
Makes about 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 1 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • ⅓ cup sliced green onion
  • 1 tablespoon jalapeño pepper sauce
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 cup long-grain white rice
  • ½ teaspoon lime zest
Instructions
  1. In the container of a blender, process cilantro, 1 cup water, broth, green onion, pepper sauce, salt, and garlic until smooth.
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add rice; cook, stirring frequently, until toasted, about 4 minutes. Stir in cilantro mixture. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Let stand for 5 minutes. Uncover; add lime zest, and fluff rice with a fork.
