Herbed Butter Garlic Rice
Herbed Butter Garlic Rice is an easy, savory side dish made with white rice, garlic, Italian parsley, and butter that comes together in less than 30 minutes. Perfect for your favorite saucy entrée!
Equipment
- sauce pan with lid
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup long grain white rice
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 2 cups vegetable broth or chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1/2-3/4 teaspoon sea salt
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Add oil and rice to a small sauce pan. Sauté on medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring often so the rice doesn't burn. Once the rice starts to turn golden, add the garlic, cook for a minute and then add the broth, parsley, butter, salt and pepper. Bring to boil, then reduce the heat to low, put the lid on and simmer for 18 minutes.
- After 18 minutes, turn off the heat and let the rice sit untouched for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, fluff rice with a fork. Digging in with a spoon can mash the rice and make it gummy. Feel free to garnish with some fresh parsley. Enjoy!
Notes
- Once cooled, store leftover rice in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
