Mint-Cilantro and Coconut Rice

2 tsp olive oil
1 cup uncooked basmati rice
1/4 cup sliced green onion
3/4 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup light coconut milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 Tbs chopped fresh mint
2 Tbs chopped fresh cilantro

Heat oil in a medium sauce pan over medium-high heat. Add the rice; saute 3 minutes. Add onion; saute 1 minute. Add broth, milk, salt, and pepper; stir. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 17 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender, stirring once after 10 minutes. Stir in mint and cilantro; cover and let stand 5 minutes.

I like to add more milk at the very end because sometimes it is too dry. I like it better with just the cilantro.
