Ingredients

Serves: 6

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup diced onion
• 1 cup jasmine or balsamic rice

Preparation method

Prep: 5 mins | Cook: 25 mins

1. Melt butter over medium-low heat in a skillet. Add onion and cook until onions are translucent. Add rice and stir until coated with butter. Increase the heat to medium-high. Let the rice cook until opaque, toasted and nutty in aroma, stirring occasionally. Do not let rice burn!
2. When rice is toasted to your content, stir in chicken broth, bay leaf and rosemary. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil over medium-low heat, cover and cook until all broth has been absorbed by the rice, broth is reduced and rice is tender, about 15 to 18 minutes. Stir frequently. Remove from heat and set aside for 5 minutes. Discard bay leaf. Fluff rice with a fork and serve.
3. Below is listed various options on this recipe.
4. You may also add when adding broth:
5. Toasted pine nuts (my choice)
6. Toasted sunflower seeds
7. Toasted slivered almonds
8. Use approximately 1/2 cup. the item you desire or more to your liking.
9. Or:
10. 3/4 cups frozen green peas
11. 2 chopped scallions, including green tops
12. For a beef rice pilaf variation, use beef stock instead chicken stock and add sliced Portobello mushrooms. Then add any the toasted nuts if you choose.
