Spanish Rice

I found a spanish rice recipe that I love!

2 cups long grain rice
3 TBSP oil
One small diced yellow onion
1 TBSP minced garlic
4 cups water
approx 4 TBSP tomato bouillon
1 Poblano pepper, diced
1 small handful of cilantro

Start by toasting the rice on high heat with the onion, garlic and 3 TBSP of oil, just until it is starting to brown a little. Add the water and bring to a boil. Add the bouillon and stir. Next add the diced pepper and the handful of cilantro.  Turn to a medium/low heat and cover. Rice will take approx 15-20 minutes to cook.
