Ingredients
- 2 cups uncooked long-grain white rice
- 1⁄2 cup butter
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 tablespoons paprika
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1⁄4-1/2 ground cayenne pepper, optional
- 4 1⁄2 cups chicken stock/broth
- 1⁄4 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 1 cup finely chopped fresh parsley (or 2 tbsp dried)
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Rinse the rice under cold water a few times until it runs mostly clear. Set aside to drain while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the washed rice and sauté, stirring often for 5-7 minutes, until lightly browned.
- Add the onion, paprika, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and cayenne (if using). If using dried parsley, add now. Stir well and cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Pour in the stock and soy sauce, stir well, and bring to a boil. Then, reduce the heat to low, cover with a lid, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes or until the seasoned rice is tender and the liquid is fully absorbed.
- Turn off the heat and let the rice sit for 5 minutes.
- Add the fresh parsley (if using) and fluff with a fork to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste, serve hot, and enjoy!
Notes
- If the rice looks dry before it’s done, add a tablespoon of water at a time until it’s perfectly tender.
- Use a fork to fluff the rice after cooking instead of stirring with a spoon. This keeps the grains separate and fluffy rather than sticky.
- Don’t add any salt until right at the end. Since the recipe calls for soy sauce, you might not need it.
