Ingredients
- 2 cups Long Grain White Rice
- 4 cups Chicken Broth can substitute vegetable broth
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 2 teaspoon Garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon Parsley chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the uncooked rice, chicken broth, butter, minced garlic, parsley, and salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to low.
- Let simmer, without stirring or removing the lid, for about 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all water has absorbed. It is important to keep the lid on until you need to check to see if the rice is done.
- Once the rice is tender and all of the liquid has absorbed, remove from the heat and let the rice sit, covered, for about 5 minutes. Add the lemon juice and fluff the rice using a fork, then serve immediately. Enjoy!
