Favorite Brown Rice Pilaf image

I know I have already have a rice pilaf posted, but I couldn't resist changing it up a bit. I came up with something that is quite different from the one I have, and it was a big hit in my house.

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup brown rice
1 onion, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, chopped
1 large carrot, chopped
3/4 cup frozen peas
3/4 cup frozen corn
salt and pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons basil
1 1/2 teaspoons oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil

Steps:

  • saute onion and garlic in oil until onion is translucent, about five minutes. Stir frequently to prevent onion and garlic from burning.
  • Add carrot and let saute 3 more minutes.
  • Add brown rice and stir until rice is coated with the olive oil.
  • Cover with about 2 cups of water, and add the corn, peas, salt, pepper, basil and oregano.
  • Let it come to a boil and then let it simmer until ready. Stir occasionally to prevent the bottom from sticking to the pot.
