Ingredients
- 1 red onion diced
- 2-3 cloves of garlic zested
- 1/2 cup of Basmati Rice
- 1 cup of water
- 1 plum tomato chunked
- Italian seasoning
- Sea salt
- Black pepper
- Extra virgin olive oil
Directions
Place the diced onion, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and extra virgin olive oil into a small pot on medium-high heat (No. 7). Saute until onions are nearly transparent (about 5 minutes). Add zested garlic and stir until fragrant (about 1 minute). Quickly add the water to cease the cooking of the onion and garlic. Turn heat to high (No. 10) and bring water to a rapid boil. Once water begins to boil, add rice, place lid on pot, reduce heat to lowest setting (No. 1), and set a timer for 17 minutes. Once timer goes off, remove the pot from the stove, fluff the rice, and then add and stir in the plum tomato. Wait a couple minutes for the tomato to infuse in the rice. Now correct the seasoning until it tastes like a pizza (i.e., add more salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and olive oil as needed). You can also add fresh basil or oregano for a more authentic flavor.
