Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup long-grain white rice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 medium (finely chopped) white onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 8 ounces (sliced) cremini mushrooms
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon (chopped) fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil and butter. Once melted, add the finely chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional 1 minute, stirring frequently.
Stir in the sliced cremini mushrooms, and cook for 5-6 minutes until the mushrooms release their juices and begin to brown.
Add the rinsed rice to the skillet and stir, allowing the rice to absorb the flavors of the onion, garlic, and mushrooms for about 2 minutes.
Pour in the vegetable broth, soy sauce, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine everything evenly.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a lid, and let it simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
Turn off the heat and let the rice sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes to allow it to steam.
Remove the lid and fluff the rice gently with a fork. Stir in the fresh parsley for a burst of flavor and color.
Serve warm as a main dish or a side dish. Enjoy your 'Rice and Mushroom Delight'!
