Step 1

Rinse the rice under cold water and drain well.

Step 2

Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onions and bell pepper to the pan and sauté for 2 minutes, until tender.

Step 3

Add rice to the pan and toss to coat thoroughly with butter. Continue sautéing for 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add minced garlic to the rice and season with salt and pepper. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cover the pan with a lid. Simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the rice absorbs all the liquid and finishes cooking through.

Step 5

Fluff the rice with a spatula or fork and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve warm.
