This is a fantastic flavorful side that I found in one of my favorite cookbooks by Cheryl Alters Jamison and Bill Jamison, American Home Cooking . They're all great! Ingredients:
1 cup uncooked rice |
1 3/4 cups chicken stock, plus |
2 tablespoons chicken stock |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
3 tablespoons unsalted butter |
1/2 cup unsalted pistachios |
1/2 cup pine nuts |
1/4 teaspoon mace |
Directions:
1. Bring the rice, chicken stock, 1 tablespoon of the butter and the salt to a boil in a large saucepan.
2. Reduce heat to medium-low and cover.
3. Set timer for 18 minutes.
4. Meanwhile saute the remainder of butter, the pine nuts, mace and pistachios in a large skillet until they are golden brown.
5. After rice is cooked, set it aside with the lid on for 10 minutes.
6. Fluff with a fork and scoop into the skillet, tossing with the pistachios and pine nuts.
