Best Foolproof Baked Brown Rice Recipes

FOOLPROOF BAKED BROWN RICE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Put water, rice, salt and oil in an oven-safe pot with a tight-fitting lid. (A dutch oven works great.) Bring to a boil on the stove.
• AS SOON AS IT BOILS, remove from heat and put in the preheated oven.
• Bake 30 - 35 minutes.
• Remove from oven and fluff with a fork.
• NOTE: It's okay if there seems to be a little bit of water left when you take it out of the oven; it will be absorbed as it sits.
• NOTE 2: You can use more or less of the oil and salt as your taste and diet dictate, but using at least a little of each makes the rice taste better (the salt) and prevents the grains from clumping together (the oil).

FOOLPROOF BAKED BROWN RICE

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 375°F. Spread rice in 13 by 9-inch baking dish.
• Bring water and butter to boil, covered, in medium saucepan. Once boiling, immediately stir in salt and pour water over rice in baking dish. Cover baking dish tightly with 2 layers of aluminum foil. Transfer baking dish to oven and bake rice until tender, about 1 hour.
• Remove baking dish from oven and uncover. Fluff rice with fork, then cover dish with dish towel and let rice stand for 5 minutes. Uncover and let rice stand 5 minutes longer. Serve immediately. (Cooked rice can be cooled, stored in plastic bag, and frozen for up to 2 weeks. Reheat in covered bowl in microwave until hot throughout, 3 to 5 minutes; fluff with fork before serving.)
