Parmesan Sage Rice Recipes

PARMESAN SAGE RICE

Steps:

• Add rice, oil, cayenne and garlic salt to a medium sauce pan. Put temperature on medium and saute, stirring constantly, until the rice is evenly covered with the oil. You want to saute it at least 5 minutes to make the rice have a crispier (but not crunchy) texture when it's all finished.
• Add the chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then cover, turn down to low and let simmer for 15 minutes.
• After 15 minutes check it to make sure it's not too crunchy. If it is, just add a little more water and let it simmer longer.
• Remove from heat.
• Add Parmesan, sage, parsley and pepper and mix it up until Parmesan "disappears" into the rice.
• Add more of whatever you like to taste. It should be salty enough with the garlic salt, chicken broth and Parmesan, so be careful about that.

SAGE AND PARMESAN RICE

Steps:

• Melt butter in saucepan and stir in the sage. Turn off heat and let sit.
• In another sauce pan heat broth to boiling; add rice and lower heat.
• Simmer, covered until rice is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Put rice into serving dish and toss with sage butter and Parmesan.

RICE WITH FRESH SAGE

Steps:

• Melt the 4 tablespoons butter in a 3- to4-quart heavy saucepan over medium heat.
• When the butter is foaming, scatter the sage leaves in the pan and heat for a minute or so, just until they are sizzling.
• Pour in 5 cups of hot water or stock, and stir in the salt.
• Increase the heat, and bring the liquid to a boil, then stir in the rice and bring back to a boil.
• Cover the pan, and lower the heat so the water is bubbling gently.
• Cook for 13 to 14 minutes, then check the rice for doneness; at this point, stir in the scallions, to cook for the last minute or two, until the rice is creamy and al dente.
• When the rice is fully cooked, turn off the heat, drop in the butter pieces, and stir vigorously until thoroughly incorporated.
• Stir in the 1/2 cup of grated cheese, spoon the riso into warm pasta bowls, and serve immediately, passing additional grated cheese at the table.
