Ingredients
1 C Vegetable Broth
½ C Brown basmati rice
1 tsp grated Lemon zest
1 tsp Olive oil
1 small Onion, chopped
½ lb Green cabbage, coarsely chopped
1 Tbs fresh Lemon juice
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, bring broth to a boil. Stir in rice and lemon zest. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and the broth has been absorbed, about 20 to 25 minutes. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a heavy skillet. Add onion and green cabbage; sauté for 5 minutes, until vegetables are wilted but still crisp to the bite. Stir in lemon juice. When rice is cooked, fold in cooked cabbage mixture. Serve at once.
