Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup white rice, rinsed
2 cups chicken broth 1/4 cup slightly crushed peanuts
2 scallions, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and rice and saute 4 minutes, stirring, so that the rice toasts and the garlic cooks. Add the chicken broth to the rice mixture, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit covered another 5 minutes. Stir in the peanuts, scallions, and salt and pepper, to taste. Serve with Airman Anderson's Chicken. Rice can be made 1 day ahead, then warmed and combined with other ingredients before serving.

Our new go-to rice recipe!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My fiance and I absolutely LOVED this recipe! We eat rice very often (3-4 times a week), and are always looking for ways to... mix it up. I did change it up a little, I used a little bit of vegetable oil and a little bit of sesame oil to give it a more Asian taste. I also subsituted water for the chicken broth and put one teaspoon Knorr chicken seasoning to it to give it the chicken broth flavor with less sodium (we don't use salf in our cooking much). I omitted the salt and subsituted almonds for the peanuts, as that is what I had at home! The result was amazing, and I have a feeling we are going to be making this at least oncce a week from now on! Thanks so much Sunny for the amazing rice dish!Read more

Great and different way to prepare rice
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We loved the crunch of the peanuts in this dish. I made it during my lunch hour, then heated it up that night to serve with... dinner. It was fine.Read more

Stormy Rice Brought Sunny Smiles
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is the best rice I have ever made and I have been cooking for 40 years. I will make my basic rice like this from now on... also. The green onion and peanuts are perfect, but you could always substitute other ingredients like peas, cooked broccoli, almonds, etc..Read more
