Wow.... Long John must seriously guard their rice recipe....Rats. I was thinking about the rice and crumblies (MMMMMMMM crumblies) the other day and thought if anyone could find a recipe, it would be on ThriftyFun.
I know LJS is totally bad for me, but so yummy and I needed yummy comfort food. There is only one left in my area and it isn't close by and I had rice in the pantry so I thought I would try to make my own.
I googled and googled and thought I found a few recipes, but none seemed right. Then I found the ingredients...
www.fooducate.com/
No wonder it tastes so good...rice, butter, salt, chicken fat, sugar, coconut oil :) and a lot of chemicals (ICK).
I may try messing around to see if I can get it right...if I do, I will post it. Meanwhile I think my hips are thanking me for NOT finding it, as a moment on the lips is a lifetime on the hips in my world!
Did you ever find that recipe for that chicken rice wrap? If so plz let me know!
There's no food that is inherently "bad." The key is portion control and NOT having fried foods every day (or even every week).
1/3 cup butter1/2 medium yellow onion finely diced1 1/2 cups long grain white rice3 cups good quality chicken stock* or vegetable brothsalt & pepper to taste2-3 bay leaves
Melt butter over medium heat in large saucepan. Add in onion and saute gently for 5-6 minutes. Stir in rice grains to coat in butter.
Pour in remaining ingredients. Cover, bring to boil, then reduce heat to low and cook 5 minutes less than what is listed on rice package directions {should be about 15 minutes.}
Turn heat off rice, but keep on the hot burner for 10 minutes to steam and prevent scorching. Fluff rice with a fork, remove bay leaves, and serve as desired. Top with dried parsley flakes {optional}.
Almost taste like long John's silvers rice.
