This is a super-easy, tasty, flavorful, low fat side dish that my husband & I concocted to go with our tequila lime marinated chicken (Lowry's and Super Target in the US carry a yummy 30 minute marinade). I've seen this posted with sour cream and/or cheese added, but we were going for low-fat here. Adding these would cut the heat of the peppers, but by removing many of the seeds we were able to make this just spicy enough while keeping it low fat.

SERVES 2 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1/2 cup brown rice
1 cup chicken broth (can or box, homemade or made with bullion)
2 jalapeno peppers, chopped. (Remove at least 1/2 the seeds unless you like spicy!)
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2-1 teaspoon olive oil

Directions

1
Sautee onion in olive oil.
2
Combine all ingredients in a pot with a tight-fitting lid, bring to a boil, and then simmer until cooked (30-40 minutes).
3
ENJOY!

Lovely rice dish! I added in just 1 jalapeno since I didn't want to make it too spicy for DD and we all enjoyed it! Thank you, Clare, for sharing this wonderful recipe, definitely will be making it again! Made for PAC Spring '08.
