Ingredients:
- 2 tsp olive oil
- ½ diced onion
- 1 cup long-grain rice, uncooked
- ½ tsp garlic salt*
- ½ tsp dried basil leaves
- ½ tsp ground turmeric
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
Instructions:
- Heat the oil in a skillet and add the onion. Cook for 3 minutes or until it’s almost translucent.
- Add in your rice and cook, stirring until the rice is lightly toasted.
- Add in your spices and stir until evenly distributed.
- Add your chicken broth and bring to a boil.
- Lower the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 10 minutes.
- Add in the frozen peas and carrots and stir well (adding up to ½ cup of extra broth if the rice looks too dry– you don’t want it to burn). Cover and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
*Make your own garlic salt by combining 3 teaspoons of salt to 1 teaspoon of garlic.
