Equipment

  • 8-inch square baking dish

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups long grain rice uncooked
  • 14.5 ounce beef broth
  • 10.5 ounce French onion soup see note
  • 0.5 cup butter
  • parsley to garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F/220°C/ gas mark 7. Butter an 8-inch square baking dish.
  • Pour the rice into the baking dish and level it out.
  • Whisk together the beef broth and the onion soup. Pour this over top of the rice in the dish to cover completely. Do not stir.
  • Cut the butter into thin pats and lay it out over top of the rice and liquid. (It will float, but just do your best.)
  • Cover the dish tightly with foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Uncover. Do not stir.
  • Return to the oven and bake for an additional 25 minutes, or until all of the liquid has been absorbed by the rice, the rice is tender, and the top is golden brown.
  • Give it a good stir to mix all of the onions into the rice. Garnish with parsley and serve warm.

Notes

We do not have condensed French onion soup here, so I used a can of Baxter's diluted soup, which I poured into a measuring cup and then added the beef broth to give me 15 ounces of liquid altogether in total. It worked perfectly.
