Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups chicken stock, unsalted or low sodium
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 cups long-grain white rice, uncooked
  • 1/2 cup slivered almonds
  • 3 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  2. Pour the chicken stock into a saucepan and bring it to a boil over high heat.
  3. Put the rice in an ungreased 2 1/2-quart casserole or Dutch oven; pour the rice over it and stir in the salt.
  4. Cover the pot tightly with a lid or foil and bake the rice for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the liquid is completely absorbed and the rice is tender.
