Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 cups minced onion (from 1 onion)
3 cups long-grain white rice
Coarse salt
4 1/2 cups water
3 cups diced zucchini (from 2 zucchini)
1/2 cup finely chopped mixed fresh herbs, such as flat-leaf parsley, dill, and chervil

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion, and cook, stirring, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in rice and 2 teaspoons salt.

Let rice stand, covered, 10 minutes.
