Ingredients
  • 2 tbls olive oil
  • 1/4 cup Cilantro Sofrito (jarred, find it at a mexican grocery or in the hispanic section at a general grocery)
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro (about 1/2 bunch, I rip it off about where the leaves end)
  • 1 1/2 cups medium grain rice
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • water

Directions
  1. Heat olive oil over medium heat on a large saucepan.
  2. Add sofrito and cilantro and saute, stirring constantly, until flavors are released.
  3. Add rice and mix well. Saute for about 2 minutes. Add salt.
  4. Add water to a level that's almost up to your first knuckle, I think that's about 1/2". Stir well.
  5. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 15 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and check rice texture - water should be absorbed and rice should be tender. Recover and let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
