2 garlic cloves, minced |
2 tablespoons cooking oil |
2 cups broth, beef (depends on what you are serving this with) or 2 cups chicken (depends on what you are serving this with) |
1 large tomato, peeled and chopped |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. In a 2 quart saucepan cook the uncooked rice, onion, and garlic in hot oil for 5 to 8 minutes or until the rice is golden and the onion is tender, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
