The green comes from cilantro and spinach! With a touch of cayenne, this dish is outstanding!

1 1/2 cups long-grain rice
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 cup tightly packed spinach leaves, stemmed and thoroughly washed
2 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth

1 1/2 cups long-grain rice
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
