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 , 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. 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.

  2. 2

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

  3. 3

    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.
