Basic Cooked Rice
Ingredients:
2 Cups uncooked rice
2-1/2 cups chicken stock
1-1/2 tablespoon onion -- very finely chopped
1-1/2 tablespoon celery -- very finely chopped
1-1/2 tablespoon green bell pepper -- very finely chopped
1-1/2 tablespoon unsalted butter -- melted
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
pinch white pepper
pinch cayenne pepper
pinch black pepper
Instructions:
If you make this ahead of time and store it, omit the bell peppers
-- they tend to sour quickly. Use chicken stock if you are serving
the rice with a chicken dish, seafood stock with a seafood dish, beef
with a beef dish... In a 5x9/2 1/2 inch loaf pan, combine all ingredients;
mix well. Seal pan snugly with aluminum foil. Bake at 350F until rice
is tender, about 1 hour, 10 minutes. Serve immediately. However, you
can count on the rice staying hot for 45 minutes and warm for 2 hours.
To reheat leftover rice, either use a double boiler or warm the rice
in a skillet with unsalted butter. |
