Green Poblano Rice
"Adapted from a recipe I found on the internet. I made some changes and it turned out pretty good. If you like it spicy, add a chopped jalapeno or serrano pepper. If you just like savory, leave that part out."

I’ve made this a few times. I added a twist yesterday. After making the rice I added some sautéed jalapeño’s & onions and lime juice. Took it over the top. -

I have cooked this dish multiple times and it's a hit! As a matter of fact my daughter's birthday is today and she requested this. -
Great way to use up the poblanos and serranos from the garden. I made mine spicy, adding a few extra serranos. Very tasty side dish and simple to prepare. Will definitely make again. -
i added a can of rotel to mine. yum. everyone liked it. -
This was very good!!! I was searching for different recipes to use my bumper crop of home grown poblano peppers. I paired this dish with Delicious Chicken Poblano (Recipe #98285) and it was a real winner!! I will make this often, thanks for posting!
