A mild side dish that won't overpower the entree. Use the thread saffron, which gives a much better flavor. Ingredients:
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil |
1/4 cup onion, diced |
1/2 teaspoon garlic, minced |
1 cup white rice |
1 1/2 cups chicken broth |
1/2 teaspoon saffron |
1 1/2 teaspoons parsley, chopped |
Directions:
1. Heat the oil in a heavy saucepan (that has a lid).
2. Add the onion and garlic and cook until just soft.
3. Add in the rice and cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
4. Add the broth, saffron, and parsley.
5. Cover and reduce the heat to low.
6. Cook for 15-18 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed.
7. Fluff with a fork before serving.
