Easy Rice Pilaf

1. 1

   Heat a medium saucepan under medium high heat and add your butter. When your butter is heated up, add your vegetables and sweat (cook without browning) them, about 3-5 minutes.

2. 2

   Once the vegetables are slightly softened, add the rice. Stir until lightly toasted, about 1-2 minutes.

3. 3

   Then slowly incorporate your stock of choice.

4. 4

   Then add your half of a bay leaf.

5. 5

   Bring mixture to a boil.

6. 6

   Then lower to a simmer and cover.

7. 7

   Let cook for about 20-25 minutes, or until about 95% of stock is absorbed into rice.

8. 8

   Serve as is or use as a side dish for a main course. We ended up sauteing a few shrimp, putting them on top of the pilaf, and calling it dinner!
