How to Make Arroz Con Chile Verde Green Chile Rice
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Add 1 cup long-grain white rice and toast for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until lightly golden.
- Pour in 2 cups of chicken broth and bring to a boil.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon of cumin, 1/2 teaspoon of oregano, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.
- Meanwhile, finely chop 1/2 cup of canned green chilies. (If using fresh chilies, roast them first for a deeper flavor)
- Gently stir in the chopped green chilies, 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro, and 1/4 cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese into the cooked rice.
- Transfer the rice to a greased 2-quart casserole dish.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until heated through and the cheese is melted and slightly bubbly.
