Materials

1 1/2 Cups Chicken Broth
1 Cup rice
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
3/4 Cup Celery Chopped Small
4 Mushrooms Chopped
1/2 Cup Finely Chopped Onions
3 Tablespoons Butter
3 Tablespoons Tamari
1/2 Cup Frozen Peas
1 Egg Beaten

Instructions

Make the rice. Combine 1 1/2 cups chicken broth and 1 cup of rice in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and let simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered while you saute the vegetables.
Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the celery, mushrooms and onion and stir to combine. Add the butter and let cook for about 10 minutes, until the onions have softened and become translucent.
Add the rice and tamari, stir, and let cook for 10 to 15 minutes stirring infrequently until the bottom of the pan begins to brown and get crispy.
Stir in the frozen peas. Add the egg and cook, stirring until the egg is cooked.
Serve right away or hold on low heat until you are ready to plate.

Notes

Use vegetable oil or water for the rice to make a vegetarian dish.

Use whatever vegetables you have on hand. This is a good recipe for cleaning out the refrigerator. Broccoli, cauliflower, pre-cooked carrots, spinach and kale are some of the possibilities.

Add small cubes of pre-cooked meat such as bacon, pork belly, chicken, etc to make this a main dish.
