Instructions

Cilantro turns this rice a vivid green and the flavor is just as bold as the color suggests.

  1. Blend cilantro, garlic, onion, and a splash of the broth until smooth.
  2. Add rice, the cilantro mixture, remaining broth, oil, and salt to the pot.
  3. Select White Rice and cook through.
  4. Fluff gently before serving.

Chef's Tip: Blend the cilantro mixture until very smooth, any large flecks tend to clump rather than distributing evenly through the finished rice.

Machine/Cycle: White Rice setting. Yield: Serves 4.
