Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/4 cup Long Grain Rice (uncooked): The foundation of the dish, long grain rice remains fluffy and absorbs flavors beautifully.
- 14.5 oz can of Beef Broth: This adds a rich, savory depth to the dish, providing essential moisture and flavor.
- 10.5 oz can of French Onion Soup: This ingredient brings the distinct sweetness of caramelized onions combined with a warm blend of beef broth and spices.
- 1 stick of Butter (cold): Adding cold butter enhances flavor and creates a creamy texture, making the rice extra indulgent.
- Fresh parsley (for garnish): This herb not only adds a pop of color but also a fresh flavor that can brighten the dish.
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Prepare the Rice: In an 8×8 inch baking pan, spread 1 1/4 cup uncooked Long Grain Rice evenly across the bottom.
- Add the Broth: Pour 14.5 oz of Beef Broth over the rice, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.
- Mix in Onion Soup: Next, pour in 10.5 oz of French Onion Soup, mixing gently to combine with the rice and broth.
- Layer the Butter: Slice the stick of cold butter and layer the pieces evenly over the mixture in the pan.
- Poor Covering: Cover the baking pan with aluminum foil to keep moisture in while it bakes.
- First Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes.
- Uncover and Continue Baking: After 25 minutes, remove the foil and return the pan to the oven. Bake again for another 25 minutes to allow the rice to absorb all the flavors and become fluffy.
- Garnish and Serve: Once done, remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm!
