Ingredients
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 cups jasmine white rice
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- ⅔ cup finely chopped white onion
- 1 cup corn kernels
- 1¼ tsp salt (or to taste)
- 1 tbsp Spanglish Asadero Elote Seasoning
- 2 cups chicken broth and 2 cups water
- 2 fresh poblano peppers, roasted, sweated, peeled, seeded, and cut into small strips
- 1 tbsp chicken bouillon
Directions
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until very hot but not smoking.
- Add the rice and cook, stirring frequently, for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the butter, onion, and Spanglish Asadero Elote Seasoning. Cook, stirring and mixing with the rice, for 2 to 3 minutes, until the onion begins to soften.
- Add the corn kernels, then pour in the broth and water. Stir in the salt and chicken bouillon.
- Bring to a boil, add the poblano strips, stir once, cover, and reduce the heat to the lowest setting.
- Cook on very low heat for 12 to 15 minutes, until most of the liquid has been absorbed but the rice is still slightly moist. The rice should be tender; if it isn’t but the liquid is gone, add 2 tbsp more broth or water, cover, and cook for a couple more minutes.
- Remove from heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork, taste, and adjust salt if needed. Serve hot.
