Nutted Brown Rice Pilaf

14 ingredients
3 steps

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • about 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/3 cup slivered almonds
  • 1/3 cup pistachios, halves (and or or pieces)
  • 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 cup long grain brown rice (or basmati brown rice)
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 2 1/2 cups reduced-sodium chicken or 2 1/2 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons minced flat leaf parsley (optional)

Directions

  1. 1
    In a large frying pan with a tight-fitting lid, cook olive oil, onion, and 1/2 teaspoons salt over medium heat until onion is soft, about 3 minutes. Increase heat to high and add almonds, pistachios, and walnuts. Cook, stirring, until nuts start to toast. Onions may brown a bit, which is fine, but reduce heat if they start to burn. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  2. 2
    Add coriander, cumin, and pepper. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add rice and stir to combine. Add wine and cook, stirring, until absorbed, about 2 minutes. Add broth and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until rice is tender to the bite, about 50 minutes.
  3. 3
    Fluff with a fork, and add salt to taste. Serve sprinkled with parsley if you like.
