You can serve brown rice with the same kinds of recipes you would serve with white rice. I love using it to make rice bowls, or serving it with mains like chicken adobo or chicken tikka masala. Want to make brown rice on the stovetop instead? I have instructions for that too!
Olive Oil: For sautéing the garlic Garlic: Crush two cloves. Brown Rice: Rinse 1 cup of long-grain brown rice. I like the Carolina brand. Brown basmati rice or short-grain brown rice can also be used. Liquid: You’ll need 1 ¼ cups of water. You can also use chicken or vegetable broth. Salt: To season the rice Bouillon: This adds flavor, but if you use broth, you can skip it.
Serve it with a few runny eggs and roasted vegetables for a simple meal. Rice and Beans: Use any of my bean recipes like my yummy quick black beans, Dominican Beans or Puerto Rican Beans and some pickled red onions. Chicken: Serve it with saucy dishes like Chicken Paprika Stew or Pollo Guisado. Meat: Bisteces a la Mexicana, Salisbury Steak with Mushroom Gravy Seafood: Cajun-Spiced Fish with Tomatoes, Cilantro Lime Shrimp, Baked Scallops Vegetables: Roasted Broccoli and Cauliflower, Grilled Asparagus
You can also use it many other meals, like fried rice, over stir fries, and bowls:
Fried Rice: Brown Thai-Inspired Fried Rice, Asian Edamame Fried Rice, Spicy Shrimp Fried Rice With Stir Fries: Ground Beef and Broccoli, Orange Chicken, Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry Rice Bowls: Spicy Canned Salmon Rice Bowl or Tuna Poke Bowl.
