Recipe Summary Green Rice With Cheese

A yummy variation on traditional Mexican green rice (arroz verde) with cheese and crema so the rice becomes super creamy and cheesy.

Ingredients | Green Giant Recipes For Riced Cauliflower

4 poblano peppers, halved and seeded

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 cup uncooked white rice

2 cups water

salt to taste

1 cup Mexican crema

2 cups grated Chihuahua cheese

Directions

Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place poblano peppers cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has blackened and blistered, 5 to 8 minutes. Place blackened peppers into a bowl and tightly seal with plastic wrap. Allow peppers to steam as they cool, about 20 minutes. Remove and discard skins.

Heat oil in a small pot over medium heat. Add rice and cook until transparent, 2 to 3 minutes.

Combine poblano chiles, water, and salt in a blender; blend until smooth. Pour over rice and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until the liquid has almost been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Add crema and Chihuahua cheese and cook for another 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand covered for 5 minutes.
