Cashew-Rice Pilaf
Ingredients
- ¼ cup butter or margarine
- ½ cup onion, finely chopped

- ½-1 teaspoon salt
- ½ cup cashews, coarsely chopped
- ½ cup fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, melt butter. Sauté onion until soft.

- Simmer 25-30 minutes or until rice is tender and liquid in absorbed.

Notes
I sometimes cut pre-cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces and add to the rice. It makes a great meal-in-a-bowl.
