GREEN POBLANO RICE
Steps:
- In a 2-quart saucepan, combine the broth and chiles, bring to a boil, then partially cover and simmer gently over medium heat for about 10 min., until the chiles are very soft. Pour the chile mixture into a food processor, add the cilantro (stems and all) and process to a smooth puree. Press through a medium-mesh strainer into a bowl and stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt (or 1 teaspoon if you used low-sodium broth). Wipe the pan clean, add the oil and heat over medium heat. Add the rice and onion and cook, stirring regularly, until the rice is chalky looking and the onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook a minute longer. Add the warm chile liquid to the hot rice pan, stir once, scrape down any rice kernels clinging to the side of the pan, cover, and cook over medium-low heat for 15 minutes. Uncover and check a grain of rice: it should be nearly cooked through. If the rice is just about ready, turn off the heat, re-cover and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes longer to complete the cooking. If the rice seems far from done, continue cooking for 5 minutes or so, retest, then turn off the heat and let stand a few minutes longer. Fluff with a fork, scoop into a warm serving dish, decorate with cilantro sprigs and it's ready to serve.
