Ingredients
  

2 cups long-grain white rice

4 cups chicken broth (or vegetable broth for a vegetarian option)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon dried parsley

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 cup frozen corn (optional)

1/2 cup diced bell pepper (red or green)

Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.

    Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.

      Add the long-grain rice to the onion and garlic mixture, stirring to coat the rice with the oil. Toast the rice for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently.

        Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil.

          Once boiling, add the onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried parsley, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.

            If using, add the corn and diced bell pepper at this point.

              Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and liquid is absorbed. Avoid lifting the lid during cooking to keep steam trapped.

                Once cooked, remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes.

                  Fluff the rice with a fork before serving, adjusting seasoning if necessary.

                    Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm alongside your favorite Texas-style dishes.
