Easy Cilantro Rice

Easy Cilantro Rice

Ingredients

  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro
  • 2-3 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 sweet yellow onion (like Maui, Vidalia or Walla Walla)
  • salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

Preparation
 



While rice is cooking, prepare the rest of the ingredients as
follows: remove stems from cilantro, roughly chop
then put into a food processor with garlic and onion.
Process until everything is finely chopped.


When rice is cooked and still very hot, combine
with cilantro mixture, salt and pepper to taste. At
this point you can let sit covered for 5-10 minutes to blend flavors
then serve, or bake at 350 degrees for 20 -25 minutes and then
serve. Either way is good. The rice takes on a greenish hue
that looks pretty. This dish goes well with Mexican
dishes as a substitute for "Spanish Rice".
