    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

    What to Do

    1. In a medium saucepan, bring broth, butter, and salt to a boil .
       
    2. Add rice; cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer 5 minutes, or until rice is tender. Drain off excess liquid. Fluff with a fork.

    Notes

    For a more pronounced citrus flavor, toss a teaspoon of grated orange rind (zest) into the rice. Just gently rub a clean orange against a fine grater or zester. Be careful to remove just the colored skin and not the white pith, which tends to be very bitter.
