Garlic Butter Rice is the perfect side dish for dinner! A simple mix of butter, sautéed onion, garlic, and chicken broth gives this rice tons of great flavor.
Melt one tablespoon of the 3 tablespoons butter, in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add ¼ cup yellow onion, and sauté until tender, about 3 minutes.
Add the minced 4 cloves garlic, and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Pour in the 3 cups chicken broth and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Add 2 cups dry long-grain white rice and stir once, cover with a lid then reduce the heat to low. Simmer until the liquid is absorbed, about 18-20 minutes.
Remove from heat and let the rice rest for 5-10 minutes.
Add the remaining two tablespoons of butter, then fluff the rice with a fork. Garnish with fresh parsley, and enjoy!
