Prep time: 10-15 minutes
Cooking time: 1 hour
Serving size: 4-6 servings
Ingredients
- 1 stick butter
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 1 cup long-grain rice
- 1 can beef broth or vegetable broth (approximately 14 oz)

Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and prepare a 2-quart casserole dish.
- In a pan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and sauté until soft, but not browned.
- Stir in the rice, beef broth, mushrooms with their liquid, and a dash of salt. Mix well to combine.
- Transfer the mixture to a casserole dish.
- Cover the casserole dish and bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until all the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.
- If desired, remove the cover during the last few minutes of cooking to brown the top of the casserole.
- Check occasionally to ensure the rice does not dry out; add a small amount of water or broth if necessary.
- Serve the rice casserole hot as a side dish or main course.
