Cooking the Rice
- In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent.

- Add the diced tomato and broth to the saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover.
- Simmer for about 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
- Remove from heat and let sit covered for 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in chopped cilantro before serving.
