Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit.
  • Spread the uncooked rice evenly on the bottom of a baking dish.
  • Melt the butter over medium heat in a saucepan. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Add and stir the onion soup mix and pepper.
  • Pour the butter-garlic broth over the rice in the baking dish. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
  • Remove the dish from the oven and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Let the cooked rice sit for a few minutes to allow the cheese to melt into the rice.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley and an extra sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
