Provided by Wheres_the_Beef

Categories     White Rice

Time 45m

Yield 3 cups, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups long grain white rice, rinsed
1/3 cup canola oil
3/4 cup yellow onion, diced
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
2 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 tablespoons mild green chilies, canned
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes, with liquid
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350-F. - Bake 30 minutes total, stirring after 15 minutes.
  • Place rice in strainer and rinse under running water until it runs clear. About 2-minutes. This is important to create a dry, non-sticky restaurant style rice.
  • Drain rice, making sure to shake out as much water as possible.
  • Heat canola oil to medium high in a dutch oven (3qt to 6qt) on the stove top. Drop a few rice grains in the oil. When they sizzle, add all remaining rice. Stir constantly and fry rice until it is light golden and translucent, about 6-8 minutes.
  • Add onions and stir into rice. Cook while stirring about 2 more minutes. Add garlic and stir for another minute.
  • Stir in chicken broth, tomato paste, green chilies and diced tomatoes. Stir well and bring to a boil.
  • When rice reaches a boil, place lid on dutch oven and place in 350-F preheated oven. Bake 15-minutes then open oven and stir well. Replace dutch oven lid and bake another 15 to 20-minutes until done.
  • Remove from oven and stir in chopped cilantro. Cover and allow to rest about 5 minutes before serving to allow cilantro flavor to be absorbed by the rice.

RESTAURANT STYLE MEXICAN RICE



Restaurant Style Mexican Rice image

I love the Mexican rice I get in restaurants but could never find a recipe that came close to it ... until now!

Provided by GiddyUpGo

Categories     Mexican

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup long grain rice
2 cups cold chicken stock
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 onion
1 small roma tomato, chopped
1 jalapeno, sliced lengthwise
1/4 cup tomato sauce
1 teaspoon ground cumin
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the rice and stir until all the rice is lightly coated with the oil. Watch the rice carefully -- let it brown but do not burn (it should not turn dark brown or black). When the rice is almost all brown, add the garlic and saute for a few minutes.
  • Add the chicken stock and the remaining ingredients. Stir and cover, then reduce heat to medium-low. Let cook for 20 minutes, then check for doneness. If necessary, let cook for up to another 5 or 10 minutes. IMPORTANT: Do not lift the lid while the rice is cooking!
  • When the rice is ready it will fluff easily with a fork, and each grain will be split. The rice should by dry, not saucy.
