ZARELA'S FAMOUS CREAMY RICE CASSEROLE FROM AARON SANCHEZ



Zarela's Famous Creamy Rice Casserole from Aaron Sanchez image

I love Aaron Sanchez. He is one of my favorite TV chefs. He runs a number of restaurants. The one he runs with his mother is called Zarela's, his mother's first name. He was on a show called, "The Best Thing I Ever Ate" with his mother. His choice was Zarela's creamy, cheesy rice dish. This is what Zarela wrote after the show. I am posting it here so I don't lose the recipe. "I was just on the Food Network show The Best Thing I Ever Ate with my son, chef and Food Network star, Aaron Sanchez and within minutes viewers were going to my web site www.zarela.com, signing up for updates and writing me to share the recipe. Thank you very much for your interest and I hope you enjoy our famous creamy rice casserole. This is a superior party dish that can be easily pre-assembled and reheated just prior to serving. This is why it is high on the list of all caterers in Northern Mexico, myself included. What makes it a favorite of all eaters is that it has layers of flavors - creamy and hot, crunchy corn kernels, and the cilantro adds a refreshing after-taste."

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Char the poblanos over an open flame until blackened on all sides. You can do this over a gas stove top, on the grill, or under the broiler. Place the blackened peppers in a bowl, cover, and set aside to cool.
  • Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat with half of the salt. Cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes, then pour in the rice and stir until coated with oil. Pour in the chicken stock or water, then bring to a boil, cover, and reduce the heat to low and simmer until the rice is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  • While the rice cooks, remove the blackened skins from the poblanos and use a knife to scrape out the seeds. Avoid doing this under water, as it will wash off all the beautiful charred flavor. Finely chop the peppers.
  • Once the rice has finished cooking, remove the lid and stir in the poblanos, the remaining salt, corn, Mexican crema or sour cream, 3/4 of the cheese and half of the scallions.
