Carrot Baked Brown Rice

from Roasted Chicken & Grapes with Pear Salad, the Week of October 9, 2016.
View the previous recipe for this meal.

Baking brown rice leaves you with a fluffy product that needs little attention. I love the flavor addition of carrots, but you certainly could leave them out. I use broth for a bit more flavor, but water is a reasonable substitute.

Ingredients

  • cup brown rice
  • 1 carrot, shredded
  • cups broth, boiling
  • ½ teaspoon salt, more if your broth is unsalted
  • 1 tablespoon butter, unsalted, optional

Serving Size: 4 People



 

Preparation Instructions

Preheat oven to 375.

Place the brown rice in an 8×8 or 9×9 baking dish (if doubling this recipe, use a larger dish). Sprinkle the shredded carrot on top. Add the butter and salt to the simmering broth or water. Pour over the rice and cover with foil. Tightly seal the foil around it.

Place in the oven for 1 hour. Remove the foil and lightly fluff.
