     Mexican Rice

Category   Salads - Soups - Sidedishes
Sub Category   None
Servings   6
Preptime   1.5 hours

Ingredients
12 ounces tomatoes (can be canned)
1 medium white onion
3 medium jalapenos (optional)
2 cups long grain white rice
1/3 cup canola oil
4 minced garlic cloves
2 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon tomato paste (omit if using canned tomatoes)
1 1/2 tsp salt
 
1/2 cup cilantro
1 lime

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Blend tomatoes and onion in blender until pureed and thoroughly smooth. You will use 2 cups of this mixture later. If using jalapenos, remove ribs and seeds from 2 jalapenos and mince the flesh and set aside.
Rinse rice in water for 1.5 minutes or until water runs clear. Remove excess water. This step makes your rice fluffy. Heat oil in pot over low-medium heat about 2 minutes. Drop a rice grain in and if it sizzles then it's ready. Add rice and fry stirring until rice is light golden and translucent, about 6-8 minutes.
Reduce heat and add garlic and the 2 jalapenos from before. Cook stirring constantly until fragrant, about 1.5 minutes. Stir in broth, pureed mixture, tomato paste, and salt. Increase heat to medium high and bring to a boil.
Transfer the mix to a casserole dish and cover with aluminum foil. Put in the oven for 30-35 minutes until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Stir in cilantro, more jalapeno if desired and pass lime wedges separately.
