Serves:
Ingredients
- 1 cup basmati rice
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lemon, zest and juice
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
-
Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Set aside.
-
In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the sliced mushrooms and minced garlic to the saucepan. Cook until the mushrooms have released their liquid and are slightly browned, about 8 minutes.
-
Add the rinsed basmati rice to the saucepan and stir to combine with the mushrooms and onions. Cook for 2 minutes.
-
Pour in the vegetable broth, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover the saucepan. Simmer for 15 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and all the liquid has been absorbed.
-
Remove from heat and let the pilaf sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork.
-
Stir in the chopped parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Serve the lemony mushroom pilaf hot and enjoy!
