Best Homemade Rice Pilaf - cooking recipe

Ingredients

chicken broth, - 2 ea 14 1/2oz cans
long grain white rice, - 14 oz (just fill 1 empty broth can to measure)
butter - 3/4 stick
vermicelli (7-8 oz broken up, I measure by using 1/2 empty broth can)

Preparation

In a small sauce pan bring the broth to a boil.
Meanwhile, in a large or tall sauce pan melt the butter on med-high heat. Before all of it melts, add rice and vermicelli, stirring constantly to prevent burning. You just want a little browning for color. Grab the pot with the boiling broth and pour it into the rice mixture. It bubbles like crazy! Turn the heat down to med-low, give it a final stir, cover with tight fitting lid, and simmer for 25 minutes. Yum.
