Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons salted butter substitute with vegan butter if desired
- 1/2 cup onion diced
- 2 cups uncooked white rice
- 3.5 cups vegetable broth
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1.5 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 cup golden raisins
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
- 1 cup Chopped Pecans
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley finely chopped
Instructions
- Add pecans to a skillet heated over medium heat and saute them until they are lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Set pecans aside.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet over medium high heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until the onions are tender, about 10 minutes.
- Once the onions are done add rice to skillet and stir well.
- Add broth, salt, thyme, and pepper. Bring the liquid to a boil then cover and reduce to a simmer until rice is tender and all liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
- Once the rice is done remove from the heat and use a fork to fluff the rice.
- Gently toss the dried cranberries, golden raisins, pecans and parsley into the mixture. Place the lid back on and let sit (off of the heat) for 10 minutes before serving.
