Notes
- Rice Options: you can really use any type of rice here (long grain white rice, basmati rice, brown rice), but the amounts may differ. If you want to switch up the type of rice used, simply look on the packaging of your rice of choice and follow the rice + water amounts and their cook time instructions while adding in the butter, garlic and onion - as directed above.
- Storage: store rice leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
- Dairy-Free: to make this dairy-free use a plant-based butter.
