Green Rice Recipe
Ingredients
| Rice grain | 1 Cup (16 tbs) | |
| Boiling water | 2 Cup (16 tbs) | |
| 3 teaspoons Spice Island chicken-seasoned stock base | ||
| Butter | 1/2 Cup (16 tbs) | |
| Celery | 1 Bunch (100gm), finely chopped | |
| Green onions | 1 Bunch (100gm), finely chopped | |
| Parsley | 1 Bunch (100gm), snipped | |
| 1/2 teaspoon Spice Island Beau Monde seasoning | ||
| Oregano | 1/2 Teaspoon | |
| Ground cumin | 1/4 Teaspoon | |
| Pepper | 1/4 Teaspoon | |
Directions
Cook rice in boiling water with chicken stock base; set aside.
In large heavy skillet, melt butter; add celery, onions, parsley, Beau Monde, oregano, cumin and pepper.
Mix well, cover and cook slowly until onion is soft and celery is still somewhat crisp.
Toss cooked rice with vegetables; place in casserole.
Cover and heat through at 275°.
This may be made a day ahead (this is better as flavors blend) and warmed at 275°.
If this is done, sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of water on top before warming, for additional moisture
