Lily, this looks so good!! I love to hear your voice, too :) When I was in CDMX, I saw a few street food stands with guisados but I didn’t try them because they were pretty busy, and I was a little scared of the crazy rush and not being able to communicate well. Now I want to try this! It looks so comforting and delicious. I love a make-ahead meal that improves with time.

Also, my best friend from childhood is Peruvian and one of my favorite meals growing up was her family’s arroz con pollo. When I was young, I called it “green rice” haha. I’ve tried to recreate a few times, but not in a while. Your cilantro rice just reminded me of it. :)

Thank you, It technically is a rroz con pollo. I was just tryinv to translate it to what resembles in english.

We share lots of dishes in common among Latin American countries. Probably cause of the spaniards and french 😅 my dream is to try every version of tamales among the latin countries.

Green rice is a great name for Cilantro rice. Its so herbaceous and fragent. I could eat it on its own as a meal.
