Ingredients
2 cups long-grain white rice
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
4 cups chicken broth, homemade or canned low-sodium broth
Directions
- Place the rice in a large saucepan with the butter, olive oil, and salt, and chicken broth (or water). Bring to a boil, uncovered, and cook until you see holes forming that tunnel down into the rice forming on the surface, about 15 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to the lowest setting and cover the saucepan. Cook for 20 minutes, then fluff and serve.
