Arroz Verde Al Horno (Green Rice Casserole)

Arroz Verde Al Horno (Green Rice Casserole)


1. Place first six ingredients in a blender and puree well. Set aside. Heat butter in a large pot over medium heat until melted, add onion and sauté for 1 minute. Add the green broth and bring to a boil, add salt (2 tablespoons were recommended and seems excessive, but states the broth should be very salty. I would edge on the careful side and add less). Add the rice to the the broth and bring to boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer covered for 15-25 minutes. (Check after 15 minutes and stir with spoon, continue cooking if needed).

2. Preheat oven to 350°F In a large bowl, combine rice, 1 cup of Oaxaca cheese, 1 cup Manchego cheese, and heavy cream and stir to combine. Place rice mixture in one large casserole dish or several individual dishes and sprinkle tops with remaining cheese. Bake for 20 minutes, and then transfer to broiler to brown the cheese on top.
