Black Rice with Onion and Garlic

I love black rice.. it is also known as forbidden rice. It is nutty and the color is beautiful plus it is super healthy. Try it…

• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 small yellow onion, chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, chopped
• 1 cup black rice, rinsed
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 2 teaspoons salt
• ½ cup cilantro, chopped

Heat a medium saucepan with the oil. Add the onion and garlic and sauté on medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the black rice and sauté for another 2 to 3 minutes. Add the broth and salt. Bring to a boil and simmer on low partially covered for 20 minutes. Turn heat lower and cover and cook for another 20 minutes. Garnish with cilantro and serve.
