Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups long-grain white rice
- 1 bunch cilantro (about 1 cup packed)
- 3–4 cups fresh spinach
- 1 shallot, peeled and roughly chopped
- 1 serrano pepper, ribs, and seeds removed, roughly chopped (sub a jalapeño pepper)
- 1–2 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (1 teaspoon salt if using water)
- 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth, or water (up to 2 1/2 cups for stickier rice)
Instructions
- Rice: Rinse the rice through a mesh strainer to remove the dirt and excess water. Shake a few times or pat dry with paper towels to get rid of the remaining water. (It won’t splat when you add it to the pan in Step 3.)
- Preparation of Herb Mixture Green: Pound garlic, shallot, cilantro, serrano, and spinach in a food processor.
- Heat the olive oil in a pan to medium-high. Add the rice and sauté for three to five minutes or until it slightly browns. Once done, add salt, and herb mixture, and continue to sauté for three to five minutes.
- Add water or broth to the pot and boil the rice. Bring it to a boil and then cover to let the rice simmer for about fifteen minutes on low heat. You will know it’s ready when you can pull the fork through the rice easily.
- Cook a little longer if you find the rice is still too hard. Remove from the fire and fluff with a fork to mix in the green once the rice is cooked to your liking.
- Done! Yum! Serve with tacos, beans, creamy corn, chicken skewers, and fish or chicken that have been air-fried.
Note
Not quite as moist and fluffy, but still good, this rice was cooked with 2 cups of liquid. Use an additional 2 1/2 cups if you like it all sticky! Don’t mind either way! When it’s done, you still can add a bit more water if you are unsure about the right liquid usage. Use 2 cups of liquid to start with.
