Simple Rice Pilaf

Looking for a cheap side dish to go with your grilled foods? Why not make some fancy rice. Here is a very simply recipe for a version of rice pilaf that Good Cheap Eats posted, sounds delish to me!

1/4 cup butter
1/2 onion, chopped
2 cups brown rice
4 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon parsley flakes

In large fry pan with a lid, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and rice. Saute until rice becomes opaque and onion becomes clear. (Yeah, that’s kinda weird how that works.)
Add chicken broth and parsley flakes and bring to a slight boil. Cover and reduce heat. Cook for 40 minutes, covered, until liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork, season with salt and pepper, and serve.
