Basic White Rice

This is my version of basic rice.

Ingredients

1 cup long grain white rice
2 cups chicken broth
1 small white onion, diced
2 cloves of garlic, smashed and diced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter


Method

Heat oil in a medium sauce pan over medium heat. 
Saute onions and garlic until the onions are translucent.
Add butter and when the butter is melted pour in the dry rice.
Stir around so all of the rice is coated with oil/butter. 
Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring often. 
Add the broth, bring to a full boil, stirring often.
Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until the rice is soft. 
(I usually stir mine about every 5 minutes to keep it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.)
