For those of us who are white rice lovers at heart, this recipe makes brown rice taste great! Everyone takes seconds; it is that good. It is so easy to prepare. To convert for vegetarians, just substitute veggie broth for the beef broth. Any leftovers are delicious the next day. -Amy Berry, Poland, Maine

BROWN RICE PILAF



Brown Rice Pilaf image

Brown rice, a whole grain, contains all the nutrients and essential parts of the entire grain seed. It adds almost three times as much heart-healthy fiber to this mild-flavored brown rice pilaf as white would. Consider enjoying its slightly nutty flavor often in family recipes. -Taste of Home Test Kitchen, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

GREEN RICE PILAF



Green Rice Pilaf image

This verdant side gets its color from a mix of parsley, cilantro, chives and mint. Chicken stock adds depth, and a bit of lemon and soy sauce brighten the flavors at the end. It goes well with just about anything, but you might pair it with your next chicken or fish dish for a rewarding weeknight dinner.

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons neutral oil (like grapeseed or corn)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 1/2 cups rice, preferably basmati
2 1/2 cups vegetable or chicken stock or water, or more as needed
Salt
black pepper
1 1/2 cups chopped fresh parsley
1 1/2 cups chopped fresh cilantro
3/4 cup chopped fresh chives
3/4 cup chopped fresh mint
Zest of 1 lemon
Soy sauce for serving

Steps:

  • Put the oil in a deep skillet or large saucepan over medium-high heat. When it's hot, add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes.
