Savory Yellow Rice

Savory Yellow Rice Recipe

This aromatic Jasmine rice dish gets its vibrant color from antioxidant-rich turmeric.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 cups Cajun Country Jasmine Rice, rinsed
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1/2 tsp salt, (more or less to taste)
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 3 cups low sodium chicken broth
  • Cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  • Add butter to a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  • Once melted, add onion and sauté for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add rice, salt, turmeric, and garlic powder and cook for 1 additional minute, stirring occasionally.
  • Add chicken broth. Turn heat up and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat to low, add lid and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit with the lid on for 8-10 minutes, or until rice is fully cooked. Fluff with a fork and serve.

Notes

For rice with a more al dente texture, use 2½ – 2¾ cups broth instead of 3.

Rice is a natural, raw, agricultural product. It may contain foreign material despite the use of modern cleaning equipment. Sort and remove foreign materials before cooking. And like all raw agricultural products, it may naturally contain heavy metals.
