How to Make Baked Rice
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, gently combine the cooked rice, butter, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Stir in the chopped vegetables (onions, carrots, and bell peppers) ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Pour the rice mixture into a greased 9x13 inch casserole dish.
- Cover the casserole dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is golden brown and crispy on top, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
- Let the baked rice rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
