Total time: 1 h 5 min
Yield: 6 servings
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 cup brown rice; 2 cups vegetable broth; 1 tablespoon olive oil; 1 small onion, finely chopped; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 teaspoon dried thyme; 1 teaspoon dried sage; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 1/4 teaspoon black pepper; 1/2 cup dried cranberries; 1/2 cup chopped pecans; 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Rinse the brown rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 45 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes, until translucent. Add the minced garlic, dried thyme, and dried sage, and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and transfer it to the skillet with the onion mixture. Add salt and black pepper, stirring to combine. Cook for 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Stir in the dried cranberries and chopped pecans, mixing well to distribute them evenly throughout the dressing. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to toast the pecans slightly.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the chopped fresh parsley.
Transfer the Brown Rice Dressing to a serving bowl and garnish with additional fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
