In a pot, brown the rice with a drizzle of oil over medium heat until browned. This is optional but will up the flavor.
Add everything else into the pot, bring to a boil. About 5 minutes.
Reduce to medium low and cook covered for 30-35 minutes. Check and add more broth if needed so it doesn’t burn.
Remove from heat. Let stand for 5 minutes then fluff with a fork. Add cilantro and mix in if using.
Serve with everything!
