Land of Lakes
List of Ingredients
3 tablespoons LAND O LAKES® Unsalted Butter
1/2 cup uncooked Arborio (short grain) rice
1/4 cup sliced green onions
1 (14-ounce) can vegetable broth
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil leaves*
1 cup frozen cut green beans**
2 medium (1/2 cup) Roma tomatoes, chopped
Grated parmesan cheese, if desired
Recipe
Melt 2 tablespoons butter in 10-inch skillet until sizzling;
add rice and green onions. Cook over medium heat, stirring
occasionally, until onion is softened (2 to 3 minutes). Add
vegetable broth and basil. Continue cooking until mixture
comes to a boil (2 to 3 minutes). Reduce heat to low. Cover;
cook 15 minutes.
Stir in green beans. Cover; continue cooking, stirring
occasionally, until rice is tender and all liquid is absorbed
(10 minutes).
Stir in tomatoes and remaining butter; continue cooking until
heated through (1 minute). Sprinkle with cheese, if desired.
Season to taste with salt and pepper.
*Substitute 1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil leaves.
**Substitute 4 ounces (1 cup) fresh green beans, cut into
1-inch pieces.
TIP: Arborio rice is used because of its higher starch level
that gives this recipe its creamy texture.
Makes 4 (3/4-cup) servings
