Categories White Rice

Time 25m

Yield 1/2 cup, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups white rice (I use jasmine, but any white rice will work)
2 cups chicken broth
1/4 cup slivered almonds
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 small onion, diced
2 teaspoons margarine or 2 teaspoons butter
2 teaspoons minced garlic cloves

Steps:

In a small frying pan over medium heat, sautee the onion and garlic until onion is translucent. The garlic will cause the onion to scorch a bit, don't worry, it gives it flavor.
Add the rice, sauted onion and garlic, almonds, mushrooms, and chicken broth to a 4 cup capacity or larger rice cooker.
Stir briefly to distribute ingredients.
Set to cook. When done, let sit for 10 minutes.
Stir and enjoy!
Depending on your rice cooker, the bottom may get brown. I like it, it gives it some extra zip!
