A Simple Rice Pilaf


There once was a restaurant chain called l&n seafood grille. this is their rice pilaf recipe, almost exactly. their recipe called for 1 gallon of uncooked rice. you can see that i have cut it down a little. obviously, this recipe can be much more than quadrupled, easily.

Steps


Melt butter over medium to medium-high heat in the pot you are going to use for cooking your rice.
Add onions and saute until clear.
Add chicken base , white pepper and bay leaf.
Saute for about 1 minute.
Add rice and saute for about 1 minute more.
Add water and boulion cubes.
I use the justin wilson method , described below , for finishing rice.
Without adjusting heat , let the fluid boil until the tops of the breaking bubles are all the fluid you can see above the rice.
Cover and remove from heat.
Do not remove the lid at all !.
After a minimum of 20 minutes , your rice is ready.
The rice will stay plenty warm for up to an hour , if the lid is not removed until it is time to be served.
Remove the bay leaf.
I like to eat this rice with a sprinkling of worcestershire sauce , but it does well without it.
