Cilantro Rice

• 3 1/2 cups packed cilantro leaves (about 3 ounces)
• 3 medium garlic cloves
• 1 medium serrano chile, halved lengthwise and seeded
• 3 1/3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup minced yellow onion
• 2 cups long-grain white rice
• 1 tablespoon kosher salt

1. Combine cilantro, garlic, chile, and 2 cups broth in a blender and process until smooth; set aside.
2. Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
3. When it shimmers, add onion and cook until softened, about 2 minutes.
4. Add rice and salt stir to coat in oil and cook until rice becomes opaque, about 2 minutes.
5. Carefully pour the cilantro mixture and the remaining 1 1/3 cups broth into the rice and stir to combine.
6. Bring mixture to a boil then reduce heat to low so rice is at a simmer.
7. Cover and cook until rice is tender, about 15 minutes.
8. Turn off heat and let rice rest covered for 5 minutes.
9. Fluff with fork and serve.
