Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
1 large jalapeño pepper, stemmed, seeded and minced
2 large cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1½ cups white long grain rice, such as Uncle Ben's Original
3⅓ cups low sodium chicken broth (see note*)
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon cumin
½ cup frozen peas, defrosted
¼ cup finely chopped cilantro
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-low heat. Add the onions and jalapeño and cook, stirring frequently, until onions are softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Turn the heat up to medium and add the tomato paste, garlic and rice; cook, stirring frequently, for about 3 minutes.
  • Add the chicken broth, salt, pepper, chili powder and cumin; turn the heat up and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot and simmer until all the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
  • Add the peas, cilantro and lime juice and fluff the rice with a fork to mix. Let the rice sit for a few moments to "dry out" and lose that wet, just-steamed texture. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper and lime if necessary.
  • Note: Some rice brands will require a little less or a little more liquid; check the package for specific instructions.
  • Freezer-Friendly Instructions: This rice can be frozen in an airtight container for up to 3 months. (Putting it in a flat layer in sealable plastic bags works well as it will take up less space in the freezer.) No need to thaw before reheating; remove it from the freezer and reheat in the microwave with 1 to 2 Tbsp. of water.

MEXICAN CILANTRO LIME RICE



Mexican Cilantro Lime Rice image

Fluffy white rice with lime, cilantro, and onion makes a fantastic side dish: more "dressed up" than plain rice, but almost as effortless. (And even better than Chipotle's!)

Provided by Unpeeled

Categories     dinner

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups long-grain white rice, such as basmati
1/2 medium yellow onion, diced small
1 bay leaf
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
1 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
2 1/4 cups cold water (or whatever your rice package directions say)
2 limes, zested and juiced
2/3 cup cilantro, leaves and stems, finely chopped, plus more to garnish
Sliced jalapeño pepper to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Rinse the rice under cold water to release some of the excess starch.
  • Heat a medium sauce pot over medium heat. Add the oil. When the oil is warm, add the diced onion, garlic, rinsed rice, and bay leaf. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring, until the onion starts to turn translucent.
  • Add the water, salt, and garlic. Bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer and cook, covered, until the water is fully absorbed, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove the lid. Fluff the rice with a fork. Remove the bay leaf. Stir in the lime juice, zest, and cilantro. Taste for seasoning. Serve hot with sliced jalapeño pepper and a few stems of cilantro as a garnish, if desired.
