Ingredients
- 1 cup long-grain white rice
- 2 cups water
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch. Set the rice aside to drain.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Add the rice, stir once, reduce the heat to low, and cover. Cook for 15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, for another 5 minutes.
Step 3
While the rice is cooking, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 4
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until the onions are softened and translucent.
Step 5
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, taking care not to burn the garlic.
Step 6
Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Step 7
Once the rice has rested, fluff it with a fork and add it to the skillet with the onion and broth mixture. Toss gently to coat the rice evenly with the mixture.
Step 8
Cook the rice in the skillet for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is absorbed and the flavors meld together.
Step 9
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped parsley for a fresh, herby finish.
Step 10
Serve hot as a side dish or a base for your favorite protein. Enjoy!
