Rice Pilaf
This is my take on a rice pilaf. It makes a perfect side dish for most proteins.
Ingredients
-
1 tbsp. unsalted butter
-
1 tbsp. olive oil
-
1 small carrot, peeled and diced
-
1 small stalk celery, diced
-
1/4 yellow onion
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 cup long grain rice
-
1 3/4 cup unsalted chicken or veggie broth
-
1/4 tsp. each salt, pepper, salt-free all purpose seasoning
-
1/8 tsp. each poultry seasoning, ground sage
Cooking Instructions

1
Heat the butter and oil in a medium pot with a tight fitting lid over medium heat. Once its melted and hot, add the carrots, celery and onion with a large pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until everything has softened up...about 7-10 minutes. Then add the garlic and cook a minute or two more, until fragrant. Stir in the rice and seasonings and increase the heat to med-high.

Stir often, so the rice toasts evenly for about 3 or so minutes. Then stir in the broth and place on the lid. Once it starts to come to a low boil, which should be fairly quickly, decrease the heat to low and let simmer undisturbed for 13-15 minutes, or until the liquid has been absorbed. Then turn off the heat and keep the lid on an additional 5 minutes. Then fluff with a fork and serve.
