Onion Rice.

Can rice get better than this? I'm not so sure. When you taste this rice you'll swear it has butter in it, but there's no butter to be found! I'll go out on a limb and say that this rice has a comfort level just a notch below mac & cheese. It's THAT good, assuming you like onions. It melts in your mouth. I initially made it to be a side dish, but it was so satisfying it became the main course.

Onion Rice

Light drizzle of olive oil
1 onion chopped or processed
1 cup long-grain white rice
3 hearty pinches of ground black pepper
1 pinch of kosher salt
1 clove of garlic minced OR a few shakes of garlic powder
2 cups chicken broth OR 2 cups water with 2 chicken boullion cubes

Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and cook until almost tender. Stir in rice, and continue cooking until coated with oil. When onion is tender and rice begins to brown lightly, season with salt, pepper and garlic, and pour in the broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 20 minutes.
