Roasted Corn And Garlic Rice For Two Recipes

BAKED CORN AND RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Cook the rice in boiling water and simmer for 15 minutes, drain and set aside until needed.
• Saute the onions in butter until soft then add the sweet peppers, mushrooms and drained corn, jalapeno peppers, salt and pepper, cooking on low for 5 minutes.
• Mix the cooked rice, vegetables, grated cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses and sour cream together, blend well.
• Pour into a greased 8 x 14 casserole dish and sprinkle with the parmesan cheese bake for 1 hour.

ROASTED CORN AND GARLIC COUSCOUS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Wrap garlic cloves tightly in foil and place on prepared baking sheet. Arrange corn on baking sheet next to garlic and sprinkle corn with the salt. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until garlic is soft and corn is golden, turning every 5 minutes to prevent corn from burning. Unwrap garlic and mince. Slice kernels from corn cob.
• Combine garlic, corn kernels and chicken broth in a medium saucepan. Set pan over medium-high heat and bring mixture to a boil. Stir in couscous, remove from heat, cover and let stand 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and stir in green onions and pimento, and toss to combine.

CHICKEN AND RICE FOR TWO(COOK'S COUNTRY)

Steps:

• 1. Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine ¾ cup broth, rice, and ¼ teaspoon salt in medium bowl and microwave, covered, until liquid is absorbed, 6 to 8 minutes.
• 2. Meanwhile, pat chicken dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Heat oil in medium saucepan over medium-high heat until just smoking. Cook chicken until browned all over, about 10 minutes; transfer to plate.
• 3. Pour off all but 1 teaspoon fat from pot, add onion and ¼ teaspoon salt, and cook over medium-low heat until softened and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and thyme and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add remaining ½ cup broth and wine, scraping bottom of pot to loosen any browned bits. Stir in parcooked rice, breaking up any large clumps, and bring to simmer. Place chicken skin side up on rice, cover, and bake until rice is cooked through and chicken registers 175 degrees, about 25 minutes.
• 4. Remove pot from oven, transfer chicken to platter, and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Fluff rice with fork, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes. Stir parsley into rice and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve rice with chicken.
• TIP:Chicken and rice is usually made in a wide skillet. But with such a big circumference, even a covered skillet lets too much steam escape. We had better results with a saucepan, which has a smaller circumference, and hence keeps the moisture where you want it: in with the chicken and rice.

EASY ONE-BOWL CARROT CORN AND RICE BAKE

ROASTED CORN WITH GARLIC AND OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• 1. Turn oven to 425 degrees and let preheat. Prepare your corn ears and clean them up. Get out a cookie sheet and your foil.
• 2. Mix together olive oil, garlic, and butter if you wish, in a bowl. Add in pepper, as much as you like.
• 3. Set an ear of corn on a piece of foil on the cookie sheet. Rub the corn with the mixture and roll corn around to get it well coated. Wrap up in foil.
• 4. When all corn is wrapped up, stick it in the oven for at least 15 mins. If you like it a little more roasted, go for 20 mins. I always do 15 and it comes out great.
