Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the white parts of the green onions with the jalapeños for about 5 minutes, being careful not to brown them.
Stir in the sherry, rice, salt, and pepper. Pour in the chicken broth and water; bring the mixture to a boil. Cover the skillet, reduce heat to low, and cook until the rice is tender and all the liquid has been absorbed, approximately 20 minutes.
Fluff the rice gently with a fork and stir in the fresh cilantro, parsley, and the green tops of the green onions. Transfer the green rice to a warm serving dish and serve immediately for the best flavor.
