A Simple Rice Pilaf Recipes

Steps:

• In a large skillet, brown rice in oil, stirring constantly. Blend in soup mix and pepper. Stir in water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender. Stir in peas. Cover and cook for 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a lidded skillet over medium-low heat. Cook and stir orzo pasta until golden brown. Stir in onion and cook until onion becomes translucent, then add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Mix in the rice and chicken broth. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

Steps:

• In an ungreased 8-in. square baking dish, combine all the ingredients. Cover and bake at 375° for 40-45 minutes or until rice is tender, stirring after 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Rinse the rice under water about 2 or 3 times.
• Add the oil to the pot and add the onion.
• When starting to get a light brown color add the rice.
• Add water to just cover the top of the rice.
• Add chicken cube and pepper.
• The pot is covered and is left on medium heat for 30 minutes.
• The rice should be checked on to insure the water has not boiled off.
• If the water is low, add more.
• After 30 minutes, the rice should be done.
• If there is too much water , leave the cover off and leave on heat for a few more minutes to allow the water to boil off.

Steps:

• Mix chicken stock and next 5 ingredients in saucepan and bring to a boil.
• Add rice, return mixture to boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes (for instant rice-- follow package recommended cooking times for other brown rice varieties).
• Remove from heat and let stand 5 minutes.
• Fluff with fork.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Melt butter over medium to medium-high heat in the pot you are going to use for cooking your rice.
• Add onions and saute until clear.
• Add chicken base, white pepper and bay leaf.
• Saute for about 1 minute.
• Add rice and saute for about 1 minute more.
• Add water and boulion cubes. (The restaurant used chicken broth).
• I use the Justin Wilson method, described below, for finishing rice.
• Without adjusting heat, let the fluid boil until the tops of the breaking bubles are all the fluid you can see above the rice.
• Cover and remove from heat. DO NOT REMOVE THE LID AT ALL! (That means no peeking, not even once.).
• After a minimum of 20 minutes, your rice is ready. The rice will stay plenty warm for up to an hour, if the lid is not removed until it is time to be served.
• Remove the bay leaf. (It usually finds its way to the top) I like to eat this rice with a sprinkling of Worcestershire Sauce, but it does well without it.
