No Fail Rice Pilaf

This is the best way I've found to prepare rice hands down.

1 1/2 cups rice 
3 cups chicken broth
1 tsp butter
1 - 2 tbsps finely chopped onion
salt, pepper and parsley to taste
2 cups chopped cooked chicken (optional)


Start by soaking the rice in enough water to cover for 15 minutes, then drain.  In a large frying pan sauté onion in butter until translucent. Add rice and stir to coat the grains. I used jasmine rice here, but have also used white and brown rice. Heat 2-3 minutes then stir in the broth and seasonings and bring to a boil. Pour into a baking dish.

Doesn't look like much here eh?


Cover and place in a 350 F oven for 20 minutes, fluff and serve.


Goes well with chicken or pork or shish kebab (really pretty much anything!) Like these Pork Chops with Stewed Veggies
