Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Combine the rice and vegetable broth in a large pot over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 18 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

While the rice cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
