This recipe will work with most long-grain rices, including Popcorn Rice. Save some of the fat skimmed from your chicken stock to perfume the rice with many wonderful flavors.

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon chicken fat, extra-virgin olive oil or butter
3 cups chicken stock
1 small onion, minced
1 bay leaf
1 1/2 cups Louisiana Long-grain white rice
1-2 pinches salt

Steps:

  • Put the fat, oil, or butter and the onions into a medium saucepan and sweat the onions over moderate heat until they are translucent, about 5 minutes. Pour the rice into the pan and stir for 2 minutes. Then add the chicken stock and bring to a boil. Add the bay leaf and salt.
  • Cover the pan with a lid, reduce the heat to low, and cook for 18 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, fluff the rice with a fork, and serve.
