Step 1

In a medium saucepan, heat clarified butter or olive oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add onion and cook until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Stir in rice and cook, stirring frequently, until rice is lightly browned, about 7 to 10 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in garlic and lemon zest until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add lemon juice, broth, bay leaf, and salt, and bring to boil.

Step 4

Cover, reduce heat, and cook until rice is tender and all the liquid has been absorbed, about 15 to 17 minutes. Remove bay leaf and fluff with a fork.
