Golden Onion Butter Rice Directions:
-
In a large skillet, spray cooking spray over medium-low heat. Add the sliced onions and cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized and golden brown, about 20-25 minutes.
-
In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
-
Add the rinsed jasmine rice to the saucepan and stir to coat the rice with the oil and garlic.
-
Pour in the chicken broth, add the caramelized onions, salt, black pepper, and turmeric (if using).
-
Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil. Then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
-
Remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork.
-
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
