Arroz verde is normally made with poblano peppers. My family likes spicy food so I have elevated the heat in this green rice by using Hatch chiles. If you are sensitive to heat, use poblano peppers.
Ingredients
- 2 greens chiles
- 1 can chicken broth , 14 ounce
- 0.5 cups chopped cilantro
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup long grain rice
- 0.5 cups onion
- 2 large garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon chicken bouillon
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 0.13 teaspoons ground cumin
Instructions
-
1
Place Hatch chiles directly on the grates of a gas stove. Cook over medium heat, flipping with tongs occasionally, until blackened and charred, about 5 minutes. Place in a sealed plastic bag and allow to cool, 7 to 8 minutes.

Peel off charred skins; remove seeds. Place chiles, chicken broth and cilantro in the jar of a blender and blend until smooth. Set aside.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat until it shimmers; add rice and onion. Cook and stir until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in chicken bouillon, salt, and cumin. Add chile mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer until rice is tender, 25 to 30 minutes.

Lacinato Kale Salad with Warm Bacon Vinaigrette
This lacinato kale salad with warm bacon vinaigrette is made with the Italian relative to its more common "cousin", curly kale. Lacinato is a deep blue-green color, with a puckered surface, and like its cousin, it is a sturdy green, full of nutrients, that can stand up to a warm vinaigrette—a nice change from lettuce salads. Enjoy this hearty salad as a side, or add a little cooked chicken, if you'd like some protein, for a complete meal.
