Herbed Steamed Rice - the fresh herbs really add a wonderful bright note to this rice. Every time I make something with tarragon, it's like I've used a mystery herb. Tarragon was very popular in the late 70s early 80s, but isn't used much now. This rice pairs well with Lyonnaise Chicken with Vinegar Sauce.

Prep: 10 mins
Cook: 50 mins
Yields: 4 Servings

Ingredients

3 Tablespoons unsalted butter

1 medium onion, diced

1 cup long-grain white rice, rinsed and drained

1 garlic clove, minced

1½ cups water

Kosher salt

¼ cup mixed herbs, such as parsley, chives and tarragon, chopped

Directions

1In a medium saucepan, melt the butter. Add the onion, cover and cook over low heat until translucent, 5 minutes. Stir in the rice and garlic. Add the water and 1 teaspoon of salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Cover and cook over moderately low heat for 10 minutes.

2Replace the lid on the rice with a clean kitchen towel and remove from the heat. Let the rice stand, covered, for 5 minutes until tender. Using 2 forks, lightly fluff the rice. Gently stir in the herbs, season with salt, cover with the towel and the lid and let stand for up to 30 minutes before serving.
