Okra Rice
A co-worker and good friend introduced me to this okra rice recipe but never gave exact amounts. I worked to get it just right so I could share it with you. It is so good!
Ingredients
-
1 pound bacon
-
1 large onion, chopped
-
3 cups sliced fresh or frozen okra
-
1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
-
1 cup uncooked rice
-
1 ½ cups water
Description
-
Cook bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until evenly browned, 7 to 9 minutes. Drain all but 1 tablespoon grease from the skillet. Crumble bacon and set aside.
-
Heat reserved bacon grease in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté until tender, about 3 minutes. Add crumbled bacon, okra, and chicken broth. Reduce heat and simmer until okra is tender and falling apart, about 15 minutes.
-
Add rice to the skillet and pour in water. Cover and simmer until rice is fluffy, about 20 minutes.
