Instructions
- Cut half of the garlic cloves into thin slices. Mince the other half of the garlic.
- Melt the butter in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic and let it cook for 3-4 minutes, until it's golden. Reduce the heat if the butter begins to brown. Using a slotted spoon, remove the garlic from the pot.

- Remove the pot from the heat and let it rest, covered, for 10 minutes.
- Fluff the rice with a fork then serve topped with the cooked sliced garlic and some green onions.
