Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 shallot minced
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 1/2 cups quartered crimini mushrooms
  • 1 cup long grain rice
  • 2 cups vegetable broth I used Better than Bouillon
  • fresh cracked black pepper

Instructions

  • In a saucepan over medium heat, combine butter and olive oil. When butter has melted add minced shallot and minced garlic. Cook 1-2 minutes.
  • Add crimini mushrooms. Cook 3 minutes or until mushrooms soften slightly.
  • Stir in rice, cook until rice becomes slightly translucent. Stirring occasionally to make sure rice doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan. About 4 minutes. Rice may brown slightly.
  • Stir in vegetable broth, bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and let cook 20-25 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with some fresh cracked black pepper. Stir. Serve.
