This is a great dish when you want a change from potatoes. It is one of my family's favorites.—Nita Cinquina, Surprise, Arizona
Ingredients:
1 medium onion, chopped
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup uncooked long grain rice
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) chicken broth
1 cup water
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
dash pepper
2/3 pound fresh or frozen peas, thawed
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, saute onion in butter until tender. Add the rice; saute until golden brown, about 5 minutes.
2. Stir in the broth, water, basil, seasoned salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15-18 minutes or until rice is tender (some liquid will remain).
3. Stir in peas. Remove from the heat; cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Stir in cheese. Yield: 6 servings.
