Golden Onion Rice (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
1 large onion, chopped finely
02 -
2 cloves garlic, crushed
03 -
2 tablespoons butter
04 -
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, minced
05 -
½ teaspoon black pepper
06 -
3 cups chicken or veggie stock
07 -
1 teaspoon salt
08 -
1 ½ cups of long white rice
09 -
1 tablespoon olive oil
# Instructions:
01 -
Melt butter and olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Toss in the onions and stir them around until they soften and pick up a golden color—takes about 8 to 10 minutes.
02 -
Stir in the garlic and cook for a couple of minutes until it starts to smell amazing.
03 -
Add the rice to the mix and stir it for a minute or two to give it a light toast.
04 -
Stir in the stock, then add salt and pepper. Crank the heat to high to get it boiling.
05 -
Turn the heat way down, pop a lid on, and let it cook real slow for 18 to 20 minutes, until the rice soaks up all the goodness.
06 -
Take it off the stove and let it chill for 5 minutes. Then fluff the rice up with a fork.
07 -
Sprinkle some fresh parsley over the top before digging in.
# Notes:
01 -
Rinsing the rice beforehand gets rid of extra starch for fluffy results.
