4-ounce can mild green chiles, drained and chopped
1/2 cup long-grain white rice
3/4 cup low-salt chicken broth

Preparation
In a small heavy saucepan cook onion in oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened. Stir in garlic, chiles, and rice and cook, stirring occasionally, until rice is translucent, about 1 minute. Add broth and salt and pepper to taste and bring to a boil.
