Arroz al limón

Ingredientes

• 2 tablespoons olive oil (or butter)
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 cup (190g) uncooked long grain rice
• 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
• zest of 1 lemon
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
• salt and pepper (to taste)

Preparación

1. 1

   Finely chop garlic (preferably with a knife and not a garlic press).

2. 2

   Heat the olive oil in a medium pot over low heat. When hot add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

3. 3

   Add the rice and cook, stirring, for about 30-60 seconds, until all the rice grains are coated in oil.

4. 4

   Add oregano and chicken broth, close the pot with a tightly-fitting lid (preferably transparent so you can see when the rice starts to boil), bring to a boil then reduce the temperature to low and cook for 14 minutes.

5. 5

   Take the pot off the heat and leave it (covered) to rest for 10 minutes.

6. 6

   Fluff the rice with a spatula or wooden spoon and season with lemon zest, lemon juice, parsley, salt, and pepper. Stir gently until combined.

   Enjoy!
