Traditionally Mexican style rice is made with long grain white rice. That's the rice I use in this recipe. I have tried it with other types of rice but long grain white rice performs best because this recipe is created for the proper ratio of liquid. Place rice in strainer and rinse under running water until it runs clear.
Steps to make Restaurant style Mexican rice:
- Place canned tomatoes (do not drain) & onion in a blender, mix until smooth. It should make about 2 cups, if more measure 2c of liquid and place in a medium sized sauce pan. Add chicken broth, salt & cumin. Let come to a boil over medium heat.
- Heat oil over medium heat in a Dutch oven or rice pot. Add rice & saute about 5 min, stirring frequently. Add jalapeños and cook 2 min. Add garlic & cook 30 seconds, you may have to lower heat. Pour boiling tomato mixture over rice, mix. Cover and cook until mixture is absorbed into the rice, about 17-20 min. Fluff rice with a fork. Turn off heat & cover again, let sit 10 min. Optional: garnish with fresh cilantro. Squeeze lime juice over & serve!
