GREEN RICE (ARROZ VERDE)



Green Rice (Arroz Verde) image

There are many ways to make arroz verde, but most have something in common: a brightness and depth from the addition of plenty of fresh green ingredients, such as chiles and herbs. This recipe toasts the rice in oil first, then seasons it with a purée of onion, poblano, jalapeños and herbs. For a more complex dish, replace the cooking water with chicken stock or vegetable stock, and serve it with a side of soupy black beans.

Time 55m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup long-grain white rice, such as jasmine
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup roughly chopped white onion (about half a small onion)
1/2 cup roughly chopped poblano pepper, stemmed and seeded (about half a large poblano)
1 jalapeño, stemmed, seeded and roughly chopped
2 cloves garlic, peeled
1/2 cup cilantro leaves
1/4 cup parsley leaves
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
1 1/4 cups chicken stock or water
1 lime, halved, to serve

Steps:

  • Rinse the rice a few times, until the water that drains from it runs almost completely clear. Set aside to drain well. Put the onion, poblano, jalapeño, garlic, cilantro, parsley and salt in a food processor with a splash of the measured stock or water if needed, to help the blades catch the ingredients and break them down. Purée until smooth.
  • Heat oil in a medium, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat, then add the rice and stir well. When the grains are dry and toasted, and some are starting to color, about 5 to 10 minutes, add the mixture from the blender along with the remaining stock or water.
  • When the liquid comes to a rolling boil, give it a good stir, scraping at the bottom of the pot. Put a lid on the pot and turn the heat down to low. Cook for 15 minutes, then turn off the heat and let the rice rest for another 15 minutes before opening the lid. The green purée will have settled on the top of the rice, so gently mix it in as you stir and aerate the rice with a spatula. Taste, season with salt and serve with a wedge of lime.

INCREDIBLE GREEN RICE



Incredible Green Rice image

This is a great way to serve rice. The 'green' comes from parsley and green onion. Very tasty and easy! For those saying it needed salt, if you are using a low salt broth of course you should add salt! Also, if you are a salt lover, ADD SALT! It's best to add a little salt to the liquid if you feel the need. See NOTE: Found this in Quick Cooking recipes 2002. ***NOTE: If you are using chicken broth you may want to add a 1/2 tsp of salt to the pot. Bouillon is already salty and doesn't require any. Likewise with butter. If you are using unsalted and a little salt to the pot.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the risotto will be. Use arborio rice, which is a short-grain rice that absorbs liquid well and has a creamy texture when cooked.
  • Toast the rice before adding liquid: This step helps to release the rice's starch and prevents it from sticking together.
  • Add the liquid gradually: Cook the risotto over medium heat and add the liquid in small increments, stirring constantly. This will help the rice to absorb the liquid evenly and prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Stir constantly: Stirring the risotto constantly will help to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan and will also help to release the starch from the rice.
  • Cook until the rice is al dente: The rice should be cooked through but still have a slight bite to it. This usually takes about 18-20 minutes.
  • Add the cheese and butter at the end: Once the rice is cooked, stir in the cheese and butter. This will help to create a creamy and flavorful risotto.
  • Serve immediately: Risotto is best served immediately after it is cooked. It can be reheated, but it will not be as creamy and flavorful as when it is freshly made.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Just Like Stephenson's Green Rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover rice, and it can be customized with a variety of ingredients.
