Method

  1. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium high heat. Add rice and onion and cook until rice is golden.
  2. Meanwhile, combine remaining ingredients. Once rice has toasted, remove from pot and add mixture. Bring to a boil and add rice. Cook, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes or until rice is desired tenderness.
  3. Serve warm with a steak, a glass of red wine, and maybe a vegetable sauté.
