I have changed this recipe off and on during the years, but generally it has remained the same wonderful dish. Add red bell pepper for additional color if you wish!

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 bunches green onions, sliced, white parts and tops separated

  • 2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced

  • 2 tablespoons sherry

  • 2 cups uncooked long-grain rice

  • salt to taste

  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

  • 2 cups chicken broth

  • 1 ½ cups water

  • ½ cup minced cilantro

  • ½ cup minced parsley

Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute the white parts of the green onions with the jalapenos for 5 minutes; do not brown.

  2. Stir in the sherry, rice, salt and pepper. Pour in the broth and water; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes.

  3. Fluff with a fork and stir in cilantro, parsley and tops of green onions. Transfer to a warm serving dish and serve immediately.
