Baked Brown Rice

Recipe Added:  11/30/2011
1 1/2 cups brown rice
2 1/2 cups chicken broth
Preheat the oven to 350. Lightly grease an 9x9-inch baking pan. Place the rice in the prepared pan and pour in the liquid. Stir to equally distribute the rice. Cover tightly with a double layer of aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit for five minutes before removing the aluminum foil and fluffing with a fork. If your rice still has a bit of liquid on the bottom or conversely, if it is dried out, adjust the baking time up or down to make changes.

Variations:
Before baking, slice one small yellow onion into dices or half moons and caramelize and brown in 1 tsp of olive oil until golden and soft (about 10 minutes in a skillet). Stir onion into rice and broth mixture and bake according to recipe.

After removing rice from the oven and letting it sit for five minutes, remove aluminum foil and stir in the zest and juice from 1 lemon, 1/2 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese, 1 Tbsp sugar and 1/2 apple, finely diced.
