Traditional Mexican Rice


Mexican Rice

 Mexican Rice
 
 
4 Tbs    vegetable oil  
2 Tbs    unsalted butter  
2 cups    long grain rice  
1   onion, chopped  
2   cloves of garlic, minced or pressed  
2   Anaheim chilies, seeded and chopped  
3/4 lb    tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped  
4 cups    low sodium broth, vegetable or chicken  
1/4 cup    firmly packed cilantro  
 
Heat oil and butter in a 4-6 qt sauce pan over medium heat. When the butter is melted, add the rice and cook, stirring, until lightly browned (about 3 minutes). Add onion, garlic and chilies. Continue to cook and stir for five more minutes. Add tomatoes and broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer on low, covered, for 25-30 minutes. All liquid should be absorbed by this time, without going dry, and the rice should be tender. Remove from heat and stir in cilantro.
