Mushroom Rice Pilaf

1. Melt butter in a deep pan or a wok on medium heat. Sauté the uncooked pasta in the butter until golden brown. Mix in onion and garlic, and cook for an additional 5 minutes.

2. Add broth and rice. Change temperature to high to bring the mixture to a boil. When the mixture is boiling, reduce to medium-low heat and cover. Let simmer until rice is cooked, about 20-30 minutes.

3. While rice is cooking, sauté the crimini mushrooms and green onions in another pan. Add salt and pepper to taste. When the rice is done, fluff with a fork, then mix the mushroom mixture into the pilaf mixture. Optionally garnish with additional green onions.

Enjoy!
