Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup white rice, rinsed
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1/4 cup slightly crushed peanuts
- 2 scallions, chopped

Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and rice and saute 4 minutes, stirring, so that the rice toasts and the garlic cooks. Add the chicken broth to the rice mixture, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit covered another 5 minutes. Stir in the peanuts, scallions, and salt and pepper, to taste. Serve with Airman Anderson’s Chicken. Rice can be made 1 day ahead, then warmed and combined with other ingredients before serving.

Tasty, very flavorful and easy to make
Love this recipe make it often, has such a great flavor and is easy to make!
This is the only way we have rice now in our home,it goes well with any type of food,especily mexican food.
Flavorful rice goes well with Airman Anderson Chicken so good. Don’t forget to cook the green beans as well. This recipe is a keeper….
I tried this recipe as a side dish for the Airman Anderson Chicken. This was a thumbs up by my family! What’s funny is my nine year old said, “mom, you are not chopped” they watch as much food network as I do. This rice was so delicious. I will be making this again an it was so easy!
Great Meal. Made with the Airman Anderson Chicken. Very pleasing. I think the rice is WONDERFUL!!! Will make often.
This is now the only way I make rice! I use Jasmine rice instead of plain white. It goes great with pretty much any Asian dishes (Thai, Indian, etc. that compliment the peanuts. Even if it’s a dish that the peanuts or scallions won’t work with, I still toast the rice and garlic and use chicken broth. Sunny, you have forever changed how I make rice! Thank you!
I can do a lot of things in the kitchen, but I have NEVER been able to make perfect rice……until now, thanks Sunny!!
Very good. ***ONLY OVERCOOK IF YOU WANT GRITS*** **ADD CYANE PEPPER FOR SPICE AND COLOR** *DONT USE INSTANT RICE*
-Thank you-
Enjoyed the dish. Normally I have soggy oriental food but this is great.
