ingredients
- 1⁄4 cup butter
- 1 large onion, coarsely chopped
- 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
- 2 1⁄2 cups converted white rice (Uncle Ben's is the best for this!)
- 4 1⁄2 cups good quality chicken broth (I use my homemade broth recipe) or 4 1/2 cups turkey broth (I use my homemade broth recipe)
- fresh ground black pepper (lots!)
- salt
- 10 -15 prepared and cooked meatballs (or as many as desired)
directions
- Well grease an oven-proof larger size pot all over (grease sides of pot also) and prepare a tight-fitting oven-proof lid.
- Heat the butter in the pot.
- Add in the onions and garlic; sauté for 4-5 minutes, or until semi-soft.
- Add in the rice, and stir for 1-2 minutes with a wooden spoon.
- Carefully add in the chicken both; mix well with a wooden spoon, and bring to a boil.
- Cover the pot with an oven-safe lid, and simmer on top of the stove for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally with a spoon.
- Set oven to 350 degrees.
- Place the pot in oven (with the lid on), and bake the rice for about 33-35 minutes, or until the rice is desired tenderness.
- Remove and stir in all the meatballs; mix well (it's that easy!).
- Enjoy!
