Steps

45 mins

1

Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. I like to add my onion first and cook until translucent & stir often for about 4 minutes, but you can add the rice first, stir often untill golden brown and then stir in the onions, 8 minutes.
2

Meanwhile, combine garlic, cilantro, 2 cups broth, and the salt in a blender. Whirl until smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour over rice and stir in remaining 2 cups broth.
3

Bring to boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes; I like to put it at 17 minutes.
