Lemony Brown Rice

August 26, 2013

This is one of my go to side dishes for when I don't have time to think about side dishes or I forget to plan one (what?!) I always have everything on hand and it is quick and easy to make. Be warned this rice is VERY lemony (I love lemon. I always say if I was stuck on a dessert island I'd want to have lemons with me.) Anyway, if you don't like things too lemony just cut back on the lemon juice to your liking! Enjoy!

3 c. instant brown rice
6 T. extra virgin olive oil
3 t. salt
1/2 c. freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 1/2 c. water or chicken broth
1/4 c. parsley, chopped

Combine first five ingredients in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to medium. Cook for five minutes then turn the stove off and let the rice sit for 5 minutes. Stir in chopped...
