• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter or olive oil (optional)
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt (optional)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Measure and rinse 1 cup of brown rice under cold water to remove excess starch. Drain well.

Step 2

Add the rinsed brown rice to the Pampered Chef Rice Cooker Plus.

Step 3

Pour in 2 cups of chicken or beef broth, depending on your flavor preference.

Step 4

If desired, add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter or olive oil for added flavor and texture.

Step 5

Optionally, season with 1/2 teaspoon of salt or adjust to taste.

Step 6

Secure the lid on the Rice Cooker Plus and place it in the microwave.

Step 7

Cook on high power for 5 minutes, then reduce the microwave’s power to 50% and continue cooking for an additional 25 minutes. (Adjust cooking times if needed based on the wattage of your microwave.)

Step 8

Once cooking is complete, carefully remove the Rice Cooker Plus from the microwave using oven mitts as it will be hot.

Step 9

Let the rice sit for 5 minutes with the lid on to allow the remaining steam to finish the cooking process.

Step 10

Fluff the rice with a fork and garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, before serving.
