DELICIOUS ALMOND RICE PILAF
A delicious side dish for beef or chicken. A great change from plain rice or boxed rice mixes. I like to serve this with grilled chicken or with saucy cube steaks.

ALMOND RICE PILAF
This tasty rice pilaf dish features slivered almonds. Cooking rice via the pilaf method brings out nutty, toasty flavors, and it's less sticky, too.

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Heat a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, then add butter. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring stock or broth to a boil.
- When butter gets foamy, add diced onion and almonds and sauté until onion is slightly translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add uncooked rice and sauté, stirring constantly, for about a minute, or until rice is fully coated with the melted butter.
- Add hot stock or broth, bring back to a boil, then add bay leaf. Cover and place entire pot in the oven. Tip: Check seasoning of cooking liquid and make any necessary adjustments before pot goes into oven.
- Cook rice in oven for 18 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed. If after 18 minutes, there's still liquid in the pot or rice is still too moist, re-cover and return pot to oven for another 2 to 4 minutes.
- Remove pot from oven and gently fluff rice with a wooden fork. Remove bay leaf and discard. Then place a paper towel across top of pot, replace lid, and let rice stand for 10 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve right away.

CRANBERRY AND ALMOND RICE PILAF
I've been making this dish for years - it's different from typical rice pilaf dishes in that the cranberries add the sweetness and the tartness that you don't expect in a savory dish. Oh, and it's super hard to fumble.

APRICOT ALMOND PILAF
A sumptuous but easy Persian-inspired dish. Rosewater can be found in Middle Eastern groceries and in many large supermarkets. The carrot, saffron, and apricots make for a beautiful gold color. Add a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom along with the saffron, if desired.
