Ingredients
Method
- In a medium pot, combine the rinsed rice, water, and olive oil. Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Cover the pot, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the liquid is fully absorbed.
- Remove the pot from the heat and let it sit, covered, for 10 minutes. Fluff the rice gently with a fork before serving.

Notes
For extra flavor, substitute water with chicken or vegetable broth. Store leftover rice in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. To reheat, add a splash of water and microwave covered for 1-2 minutes. Avoid lifting the lid during simmering to prevent steam loss. This recipe works beautifully in a rice cooker; just omit the olive oil. Serve alongside grilled fish, roasted vegetables, or your favorite stir-fry.
