BROWN RICE (BAKED)
Brown rice is SO much better for you than white rice. It has more nutrients and about 3 times more fiber than white rice does. I never really cared for brown rice UNTIL I tasted this one. You can do as many variations as you like with it. Add your favorite herbs, spices or veggies to it. Make it vegetarian by using veggie cubes instead of chicken. The rice turns out perfectly fluffy and delicious. The aroma that fills your house while it's baking is wonderful and it's hard to wait until it's done to sneak a taste. As it bakes the bay leaves will rise to the top so they can be easily 'fished' out of the casserole before serving. I like to top the finished rice with freshly chopped cilantro and a twist of black pepper. For a nice crunch you can add chopped water chestnuts.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Heat heavy skillet (I use cast iron) until hot. Add oil and then add uncooked brown rice.
- Stir rice in oil until golden brown, stirring constantly. (some grains will be golden while other grains will look darker).
- In the meantime heat water and add bay leaves, bouillon cubes, poultry seasoning, black pepper, minced onion flakes, parsley, oregano, basil and pepper flakes.
- Bring to a boil.
- When rice is golden and ready, pour rice into a covered 2 quart casserole dish.
- Add the boiling liquid on top of the rice. CAREFUL! IT WILL SPUTTER.
- Cover casserole with aluminum foil AND the cover for the casserole dish (to make sure steam does not escape from the rice).
- Bake for 1 hour.
- Remove from oven and let sit covered (DON'T PEEK!) for 15 minutes.
- Fluff with fork before serving.

Tips:
- To achieve the perfect texture for your brown rice, be sure to rinse it thoroughly before cooking. This will remove any excess starch and help the grains cook evenly.
- For a more flavorful dish, use a flavorful broth or stock to cook the rice. You can also add some aromatic vegetables, such as onions, garlic, or carrots, to the pot.
- If you want to add some extra sweetness to the dish, you can add some honey, maple syrup, or brown sugar to the rice while it is cooking. You can also add some dried fruits, such as raisins or cranberries, for a pop of sweetness and texture.
- If you want to add some savory flavors to the dish, you can add some herbs, spices, or grated Parmesan cheese to the rice while it is cooking. You can also add some cooked meat or vegetables to the dish for a more hearty meal.
- Once the rice is cooked, be sure to fluff it with a fork to separate the grains. This will help to prevent the rice from becoming sticky.
