The aroma of a vegetable rice pilaf wafts through the air. That is what you will get when you whip up this flavorful yet simple dish. Another one from my boyfriend’s recipe book. His video below also shows step-by-step directions. He has made this IG cooking profile for his daughter.
Ingredients:
2 TBS olive oil
1/2 carrot, diced
1/2 celery, diced
1/2 cup onions, diced
1 1/2 cups rice
2 cups chicken broth
Salt and pepper to taste
1 TBS butter
1 TBS parsley, chopped (optional)
Directions:
Heat olive oil and add diced onion; cook for 4 minutes. Add the remaining chopped vegetables and cook for 4 more minutes, or until softened. Add rice and sauté until rice is toasted. Add chicken broth and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer covered for 20 minutes, or until it reaches your preferred consistency. Add 1 TBS butter, let stand for 5 minutes, and add parsley before serving.
Buon appetito!
