How to Make

  • Step 1: Position rack in center of oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium ovenproof saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring, until opaque and nutty in aroma, about 3-4 minutes. Add garlic; stir 1 minute. Add the water, chicken broth, and salt and pepper; and bring to a boil. Cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid. Transfer to the oven, and bake until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, 25 to 30 minutes.

  • Step 2: Remove the pan from the oven and add the peas and scallions; toss gently to combine then replace the cover and allow the rice to sit undisturbed, for 5 to 10 minutes. Serve hot.
