Skillet Seasoned Rice Recipes

Steps:

• In a large skillet, cook the beef, onion and green pepper over medium heat until the meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the next eight ingredients. Simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Add rice, sour cream and cheese; cook over low heat until cheese is melted, about 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally (do not boil). Serve over corn chips.

Steps:

• In a medium to large skillet, melt butter. Add rice, dried garlic, dried onion and black pepper.
• Stirring quite frequently, saute' the mix until the rice changes to a pale brown color.
• Shake the can of broth, then open it and carefully pour it into the skillet with the rice.
• If you want to add pre-cooked meats and canned vegetables(frozen vegetables will add more time to cooking), do this now -- otherwise:.
• Add water to the point where the liquid is two times the amount of the rice, a 2 to 1 ratio. This is a key to success with this rice.
• Stir to mix it all, while bringing it to a boil.
• Turn your heat down to a simmer and cover your skillet.
• Cook for 18 to 20 minutes without lifting the cover (this is another key to success with this rice). I prefer glass lids for my pots and skillets so I can see inside my skillet without lifting the lid.
• When your rice gets holes that look like you've poked your finger in it all over, it is most likely done.
• At this point lift the lid and stir the rice to see if it's finished and to relieve the heat at the bottom and mix flavor.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Add onion and celery; cook until vegetables have softened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan; set aside and keep warm.
• Brown rice and vermicelli mix in the sausage drippings, adding butter if needed. Slowly add water and seasoning package; bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer until rice is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Just before rice is finished, add sausage-vegetable mixture. Stir well and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; saute pepper and onion 3 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir 1 minute., Stir in rice, spices and broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients; cook, covered, until heated through.
