Recipe Summary Green Pepper Rice

A great alternative to plain white rice. Excellent with my Hawaiian meatball recipe.

Ingredients | Meatball And Rice Recipe

1 tablespoon butter

1 cup chopped onion

1 clove garlic, minced

1 cup diced green bell pepper

3 ⅓ cups water

1 ½ cups converted rice

½ teaspoon dried parsley

1 bay leaf

Directions

Melt butter in a deep saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion in melted butter until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir garlic into the onion; cook just until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes more. Add bell pepper to the onion mixture; cook until the pepper just begins to sweat, 1 to 2 minutes more.

Stir water, rice, parsley, and bay leaf with the onion mixture; bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and cover saucepan with a lid. Simmer mixture until liquid is entirely absorbed and the rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Rest dish off heat for 5 minutes; fluff with a fork.

If substituting water for the chicken stock, add 1/2 to 1 teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon butter.
