Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Butter Rice Pilaf.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C) and greasing a 1-quart baking dish to ensure your delicious creation doesn’t stick.
Step 2
In a large skillet, melt some butter over medium-high heat, letting its rich aroma fill your kitchen.
Step 3
Toss in the chopped onion and sauté it until it turns a lovely translucent shade, which should take about 3 to 5 minutes.
Step 4
Next, stir in the uncooked rice, allowing it to cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until it takes on a slightly golden hue, adding a delightful nutty flavor to your dish.
Step 5
Now, pour in the chicken broth and sprinkle in a pinch of salt to taste.
Step 6
Let this mixture simmer gently for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
Step 7
Once ready, transfer the rice mixture into your prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly to ensure every bite is just as tasty as the last.
Step 8
Pop it into your preheated oven and let it bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the broth is fully absorbed and the rice is tender.
Step 9
When the timer goes off, take a moment to admire your handiwork before fluffing the rice with a fork, creating a light and airy texture.
Step 10
Serve it up and enjoy the comforting flavors of your homemade dish!.
