Ingredients

• 1 cup long-grain white rice
• 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 clove garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 1 tablespoon parsley (optional, chopped)

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the rice under cold water in a fine-mesh sieve until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch, ensuring fluffy rice.

Step 2

In a medium-sized saucepan, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter melts.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic to the saucepan and sauté for 30 seconds or until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Step 4

Stir in the rinsed rice and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, to lightly toast the grains and coat them in the butter and oil mixture.

Step 5

Pour in the chicken broth and add the salt. Stir to combine and increase the heat to high to bring the mixture to a boil.

Step 6

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid. Simmer for 15 minutes without lifting the lid.

Step 7

After 15 minutes, turn off the heat and let the rice sit covered for an additional 5 minutes to absorb any remaining liquid.

Step 8

Remove the lid and fluff the rice gently with a fork. If desired, sprinkle chopped parsley on top for a burst of freshness.

Step 9

Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
