I came up with this recipe trying to copycat Ruby Tuesday's. This is so much better and more flavorful.

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 1/2 teaspoons butter
1/4 large onion, chopped fine (or less to your liking)
1 garlic clove (chopped fine)
1 1/2 cups chicken broth

1/2 red roasted pepper (buy whole red peppers in a jar and chop fine)
4 tablespoons mexican cheese (or whatever you prefer)

Steps:

  • Melt butter in saucepan. Saute onions for 4 minutes.
  • Add chopped garlic. Cook about 4-5 minutes more, or until onion is tender.
  • Place chicken broth in pan with onion mixture. Bring to boil and cook rice according to package directions.
  • Once rice is done, stir in red bell pepper and fluff with fork.
  • Top with cheese and serve. Delicious!
