Herbed Rice

This is a great way to jazz up boring white rice. This is a basic recipe but you could use the herbs you are using in your main dish, dried fruit even grilled vegetables.  Good side dish with chicken or fish. 

Ingredients

1 cup  uncooked white rice
1 3/4 cup water (for more flavor use chicken broth)
1 tsp salt
1 Tb butter
2 Tb parsley
1 Tb dill
1 Tb green onion  (green and white part)
1/4 tsp pepper

Combine rice, water, salt and butter in  medium saucepan.    Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to simmer, cover and cook for 15 minutes.  Allow rice to sit covered for 5 minutes.  Add parsley,  dill, scallions and pepper.  fluff with a fork to combine.

Serves 4
