- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 4 fresh tomatoes, diced
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 1/3 cups uncooked white rice
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the onions in the heated oil until clear, but not brown. Add tomatoes, chicken broth, and basil; bring to a boil. Stir in rice and return to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer until the liquid is completely absorbed into the rice, about 20 minutes.
