Ingredients
- 1 cup long-grain white rice
- 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 3 sprays olive oil spray
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the rice thoroughly under cold water in a fine mesh strainer to remove excess starch and set it aside to drain.
Step 2
Spray a medium-sized saucepan lightly with olive oil spray (3 sprays) and heat on medium-low for 1 minute.
Step 3
Add the rinsed rice to the saucepan and toast it lightly for 2 minutes, stirring constantly with a heat-safe spoon or spatula.
Step 4
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and stir gently to combine.
Step 5
Add the onion powder, garlic powder, dried parsley, and black pepper, stirring the seasonings evenly into the rice and broth mixture.
Step 6
Raise the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil.
Step 7
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, and let the rice simmer gently for 15-18 minutes, or until the broth is fully absorbed.
Step 8
Turn off the heat and allow the rice to rest (covered) for 5 minutes to ensure it fluffs nicely.
Step 9
Remove the lid and fluff the rice gently with a fork before serving.
Step 10
Serve the rice warm as a side dish or enjoy it as a light meal. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of extra parsley for presentation.
