Directions

  1. Blend the onion, green chiles, garlic, and lime juice together in a food processor until smooth, add the cilantro and pulse until the cilantro is finely chopped into the mixture.

  2. Bring the water to boil in a saucepan. Stir the cilantro mixture, chicken bouillon granules, salt, butter, and rice into the water and return to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low and cover. Simmer until the rice has absorbed the liquid entirely, about 20 minutes.

This rice is great as a side dish or added to your favorite taco salad or burrito. Much like you will find in fresh-Mex restaurants.
