A delicious side dish for beef or chicken. A great change from plain rice or boxed rice mixes. I like to serve this with grilled chicken or with saucy cube steaks.
Ingredients
- vegetable oil: 2 tsp
- onion: 0.25 cup (diced)
- white rice: 1 cup
- slivered almonds: 2 Tbsp
- water: 2 cups
- cube beef bouillon: 1 piece
- parsley: 1 tsp (dried)

Stages of cooking
-
Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir onion until tender, about 5 minutes. Add rice and almonds, cooking and stirring until rice is lightly toasted, about 5 minutes more. Stir in water, bouillon, and parsley; cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until water is absorbed and rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and allow rice to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
