Arroz Verde (Green Rice) Recipe
- 4 x Poblano chilies or possibly 4 green peppers each 4 inches in diameter
- 4 c. Chicken stock fresh or possibly can
- 1 c. Parsley, fresh coarsely minced
- 1/2 c. Onion coarsely minced
- 1/4 tsp Garlic finely minced
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1/8 tsp Black pepper freshly grnd
- 1/4 c. Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 c. Long grain rice raw
- Roast the chilies or possibly peppers, remove their skins, stems, seeds and thick white membranes and throw away.
- Chop the chilies into chunks.
- Combine 1 c. of the chunks and 1/2 c. of stock in the jar of a blender and blend at high speed for 15 seconds.
- Then gradually add in the remaining chilies and the parsley, onions, garlic, salt and pepper, blending till the mix is reduced to a smooth puree.
- (To make the sauce by hand, puree the chilies, parsley, onions and garlic, a c. or possibly so at a time, in a food mill set over a bowl.
- Throw away any pulp left in the mill.
- Stir in 1/2 c. of stock and the salt and pepper.)
- Pour the oil into a 2 to 3 qt casserole and set it over moderate heat.
- When the oil is warm but not smoking, add in the rice and stir constantly for 2 to 3 min till the grains are coated with oil.
- Don't let them brown.
- Now add in the pureed chili mix and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 min.
- Meanwhile, bring the remaining 3 1/2 c. of stock to a boil in a small saucepan and pour it over the rice.
- Return to a boil, cover the casserole and reduce the heat to its lowest point.
- Simmer undisturbed for 18 to 20 min, or possibly till the rice is tender and has absorbed all the liquid.
- Before serving, fluff the rice with a fork.
- If the rice must wait, remove the cover and drape the pan loosely with a towel.
- Place in a preheated 250 degree (F) oven to keep hot.
