Ingredients - Serves 4

• Parsley - 1 tablespoon, chopped

• Chicken broth - 2 cups
• Long-grain white rice - 1 cup
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced

Let's Get Started

1. In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, add the onion and garlic and cook until the onion is soft and translucent.
3. Add the rice to the skillet and stir to coat the rice in the bacon fat. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the rice is lightly toasted.
4. Add the chicken broth, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
5. Stir in the cooked bacon and chopped parsley. Serve warm.
