Caramelized Onion Rice
"I made some very simple chicken kabobs and had some onion bits and pieces left over, so I decided to make some rice to go along side it. This is all stuff I had on hand (I just got back from World Market which is why I had the garlic and basil oil on hand) and this is definitely a one off from plain white rice. And I promise it's not too oily! Enjoy!"

Better than my life of ironing my husband's shirts. Made for Gluten-Free Recipe Tag. -
Absolutely amazing. So simple but hearty and extremely tasty. I ended up using spring onion because I didn't have any normal onion and it was amazing. Have since made it with normal onion too. I also fry some chicken and mushrooms on the side and stir it through at the end. Amazing!

I love color and food and smell and taste...I just LOVE to cook! I have no formal training outside of my dad teaching me his techniques, but I seem to have a knack for making things that people rave over.
