Mexican Rice With Green Peppers And Onion My Own__bebita Food

MEXICAN GREEN RICE

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.
