Caramelized Onion Rice image

I made some very simple chicken kabobs and had some onion bits and pieces left over, so I decided to make some rice to go along side it. This is all stuff I had on hand (I just got back from World Market which is why I had the garlic and basil oil on hand) and this is definitely a one off from plain white rice. And I promise it's not too oily! Enjoy!

Time 25m

Yield 4 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4-1/2 cup onion, diced
1 teaspoon garlic oil, minced garlic will work just as well
1 teaspoon basil oil
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1 cup jasmine rice
1 1/2 cups chicken broth, I like Rachel Ray's Stock in a Box
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Heat extra virgin olive oil in a pot on medium/high heat. Add diced onions and stir. Cover and let them cook for 1-2 minutes, stir, and cover and let them cook for another 1-2 minutes, just until they turn brown.
  • Add rice, garlic oil, basil oil, and salt and pepper and stir until well combined.
  • Add chicken broth, stir, bring to a boil (should be fairly quick), cover, turn down to low and let simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Turn burner off and let rest for 5-10 minutes without taking the lid off. When done, stir/fluff and serve.
