The ingredients:
•2 cups long grain rice
•2 TBSP canola oil
•1/2 pound tomatillos
•1/2 medium onion
•2 garlic cloves
•1 jalapeno pepper, seeded
•1 tsp chopped fresh basil
•2-3 cups chicken broth
The how-to:
1.In a medium sauce pan fry rice in canola oil until it starts to turn golden brown and has a nutty smell. Make sure to stir constantly to fry evenly.
2.In a blender mix together tomatillos, onion, garlic, jalapeno and basil with 1 cup of chicken broth. Once it’s blended and smooth, add more broth until you get 4 cups of tomatillo sauce (double the amount of rice in cups)
3.Pour sauce over rice, mix well and bring to a boil.
4.Mix again and reduce heat to low. Cover and let simmer for 10-15 minutes stirring lightly every 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning.
5.The liquid should be absorbed in that period of time and the rice should be tender. Serve with your favorite Mexican dinner and enjoy!
