What You'll Need
- 4 tablespoon (1/2 stick) butter, divided
- 1 cup chopped onion (about 1 medium onion)
- 1 cup (about 4 ounces) spaghetti, broken into 3-inch pieces
- 1 1/2 cup long-grain or whole-grain rice, uncooked
- 3 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
What to Do
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat 3 tablespoons butter; add onion and saute until lightly browned. Remove from pan and set aside.
- Heat remaining butter in skillet and brown spaghetti over medium-low heat. (Be careful--it browns quickly.) Remove pan from heat and return onions to pan. Add remaining ingredients, mixing well.
- Return skillet to heat, bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook 20 more minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed.
