Lemony Rice Pilaf

Recipe submitted by DaVita dietitian Brenda from Washington.

Portions: 8

Serving size:  3/4 cup

Ingredients

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350º F.
2. Heat butter or margarine over medium heat in a Dutch oven. When melted, add onion and garlic; stir frequently. After 2 to 3 minutes, add the rice, tossing grains well to coat with fat. Sauté for 2 minutes. 
3. Add lemon juice, parsley, seasonings, and parmesan cheese to rice. Mix well. 
4. Add boiling chicken broth (if broth is not boiling, the end product will be heavy and stick). Stir well.  Cover with lid, and place in pre-heated oven. Bake for 20 minutes.
5. Remove from oven and fluff with two forks. 
6. Garnish with dill weed or parsley sprig.
