Ingredients
16 oz mushrooms, sliced
1 cup long-grain white rice, rinsed
1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 cups vegetable broth
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for about 4 minutes, until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
2. Add sliced mushrooms and cook for 7-9 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their moisture and develop a golden brown sear.
3. Stir in the rinsed rice and soy sauce. Toast the rice with the mushrooms for 2 minutes to coat the grains in flavor.
4. Pour in 2 cups of vegetable broth and bring to a gentle boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and let it simmer for 18-20 minutes until the rice is tender and the liquid is fully absorbed.
5. Turn off the heat and let the rice sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork, season with salt and pepper to taste, and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
For extra depth, add a splash of balsamic vinegar after cooking.
Use tamari instead of soy sauce for a gluten-free option.
Reheat with a splash of broth to refresh texture when storing leftovers.
