Stick of Butter Rice
Description
Stick of Butter Rice calls for mixing uncooked rice, French onion soup, beef broth, and butter cubes in a baking dish before covering and baking in the oven. The combine-and-bake method infuses the rice with a blend of beef and onion flavors derived from the soups and broth. During baking, the butter melts throughout the rice, enriching its texture and taste, while the top browns slightly after uncovering.
This dish serves as a hearty accompaniment to meats or vegetables and requires minimal hands-on time. The comforting combination of savory soup base and butter offers a flavorful alternative to plain steamed rice.
To double the recipe, increase the baking dish size accordingly (e.g., use a 9x13 pan). Make sure the rice is fully covered with the broth and soups to ensure proper cooking through the baking times outlined.
Ingredients
- 1 cup white rice , uncooked
- 10 ounces French Onion Soup or 1 1/4 cups, condensed
- 10 ounces beef broth or 1 1/4 cups, condensed
- 1/2 cup butter cut into cubes, unsalted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- In an 8x8 baking dish add the rice, onion soup, beef broth and butter, then stir well.
- Cover and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove foil and bake for an additional 30 minutes.
Notes
- The recipe is best made in an 8x8 inch baking dish to maintain proper cooking depth for the rice.
- When doubling the recipe, use a 9x13 inch pan instead of two separate 8x8 pans for even baking.
- Ensure the liquid ingredients fully cover the rice before baking to avoid undercooked spots.
