Zesty Pomegranate Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Bring the stock and rice to the boil, then simmer for 10 mins. Drain the rice and set aside to rest for 5 mins.
• Add the pomegranate, coriander seeds, cumin, most of the toasted almonds, orange zest and seasoning. Sprinkle with the remaining toasted almonds.

Steps:

• Melt butter and oil together in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add white parts of green onions and cook for 1 minute. Stir in garlic and lemon zest. Cook and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add rice. Season with turmeric, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir for 1 minute.
• Stir vegetable broth, milk, and lemon juice into the pan with the rice mixture and bring to a boil, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover the pan, and cook until liquid has evaporated, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat. Fluff rice using a fork and adjust seasonings accordingly. Garnish with green parts of green onions and chopped dill.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and add the rice and salt. Cook over a low heat for 3 minutes, stirring constantly to make sure the rice doesn't burn. Add 2 cups of the broth and the juice and zest of 2 limes and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until the rice is done. Add more liquid as needed. The rice shouldn't be sticky.
• Just before serving, stir through the juice of 1 lime and lots of chopped cilantro.

Steps:

• Cook 1 each chopped celery stalk and onion in 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium heat, 5 minutes. Add 1 1/4 cups wild rice blend, 1 1/2 cups chicken broth, 3/4 cup apple cider, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, a few grinds of pepper and 2 bay leaves. Simmer, covered, until tender, 40 to 45 minutes; let sit 5 minutes. Drain any liquid. Stir in 2 sliced scallions and 1/4 cup pomegranate seeds.
