OVEN-BAKED BROWN RICE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bring water and olive oil to a boil in a covered saucepan; stir in salt. Place rice in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Pour water mixture over rice; cover baking dish tightly with double layer of aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until water is absorbed, about 1 hour.
• Remove rice from oven, uncover, and fluff with fork. Cover with paper towels until steam is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Uncover and cool slightly, about 5 minutes more.

HOW TO BAKE BROWN RICE IN THE OVEN

Steps:

• Add 1 1/2 cups raw brown rice to bottom of a 9x13-inch glass baking dish. (Or do 1 cup in an 8x8-inch glass baking dish.).
• Spread evenly over the bottom of the pan.
• Pour in liquid at a ratio of 2 1/4 times the amount of rice you used. I generally do water, but if I want a bit more flavor, I will do half water and half chicken or vegetable broth. (2.25*1.5=3.375, or 3 3/8 cup of water for this recipe.).
• Press down and floating rice with a flat spatula.
• Once all the rice is at the bottom and no longer floating -- Wrap tightly with foil.
• Bake at 350°F for 1 hour.
• Let cool slightly before removing the foil -- there will be lots of steam and you don't want to get a steam burn!
• Fluff with a fork, season with salt and pepper and serve.
• And that's how you do it friends!
• Simple, deliciously perfect brown rice, baked in the oven!

BAKED BROWN RICE

Steps:

• Place the rice into an 8-inch square glass baking dish.
• Bring the water, butter, and salt just to a boil in a kettle or covered saucepan. Once the water boils, pour it over the rice, stir to combine, and cover the dish tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 1 hour.
• After 1 hour, remove cover and fluff the rice with a fork. Serve immediately.

PERFECT OVEN-BAKED BROWN RICE

Steps:

• Place oven rack in middle position. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Bring the water to a boil. Keep the water covered as it boils so you don't lose too much as steam.
• When the oven is at 375, put the water, rice, and salt into an ovenproof pot with a tight-fitting lid. I have successfully used pyrex dishes and cast-iron dutch ovens. If you don't have a good lid, you can also use a double layer of foil. Just make sure it's sealed well around the edges.
• Pop it in the oven.
• The rice is done when it is tender and the water is all gone. It usually takes an hour. When it's done, fluff it with a fork and serve. Yum! So simple and good!
