Really Simple Rice Recipe

This easy rice dish is perfect for a quick side or a base for your favorite dishes. Here's how to make it:

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 cup long-grain white rice
• small onion, minced
• 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 pinch garlic salt, or to taste

Directions

Step 1: Heat the olive oil in a nonstick saucepan over medium-high heat until it starts to shimmer, but not smoke.

Step 2: Add the rice to the pan. Cook and stir quickly for about 2 to 3 minutes to toast the rice slightly.

Step 3: Add the minced onion and saut for 1 minute, allowing it to soften and become aromatic.

Step 4: Stir in the chicken broth and garlic salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 5: Once boiling, reduce the heat to low. Cover the pan and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.

Step 6: Remove the pan from heat and let it rest, covered, for an additional 5 minutes to allow the rice to finish cooking.

Step 7: After resting, uncover the pan and fluff the rice gently with a fork to separate the grains.
