Instructions
- Rinse Rice and Prep Ingredients: Add rice to a fine sieve and rinse with cold water until the water runs clear. Set aside and gather the rest of the ingredients and place them next to stovetop. If using stock that is stored in the fridge, take it out and pour it into a glass pyrex measuring cup, or other easily pourable microwave safe dish, and heat it in the microwave.
- Cook Butter and Garlic: Add 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Melt the butter on medium heat. Once the butter is melted, lower the heat to medium -low and add garlic. Stir and cook for only 30 seconds to avoid burning. Add the other 2 tablespoons of butter, and stir with a wooden spoon to melt and stir garlic to prevent it from burning.
- Toast Rice: Add the rice to the butter and garlic and stir to coat in butter and toast the rice. Add powdered onion and garlic, dried parsley, and salt and pepper and stir. Toast it all for 2 minutes.
- Add Stock: Add the warmed or room temperature stock to the rice and turn up the heat to high to bring it to a boil.
- Cover and Simmer: Once the stock is brought up to a boil, turn the heat down to low to a low simmer, and cover. Let simmer for 15 minutes. Do not open the lid!
- Rest: After 15 minutes, remove the pan from the heat and let rest for another 3 minutes. Don't lift the lid!
- Fluff: After the 3 minutes, remove the lid and use a fork to gently fluff the rice. Add fresh parsley.
- Serve and Enjoy!

Notes
- Rice Making Tips
- Rice Making Tips
- Don't lift the lid! During the simmering process and the resting process, do your best to resist the urge to lift that lid. Doing so will release the steam necessary to the cooking process. And definitely don't stir the rice while it's cooking! Lifting the lid will affect the liquid-to-rice ratio and stirring will make the rice mushy.
- Rinsing Rice. While it's not completely necessary to make a delicious rice, rinsing it does remove the excess starch which will help make your rice nice and fluffy.
- Substitutions
- Substitutions
- Rice: Any white long-grain rice will work well - as long as its cooking time is about 15-20 minutes of cooking time. Brown rice is much longer and therefore is not a good substitution for this recipe.
- Spices: You can also use oregano, rosemary, or thyme or add a little more onion powder. Any of your favorites that you like to use with garlic.
