Butter Rice

1/3 cup butter
1/2 medium yellow onion, finely diced
1 1/2 cups long grain white rice
3 cups good quality chicken stock*
salt & pepper, to taste
2-3 bay leaves

Melt butter over medium heat in large saucepan. Add in onion and saute gently for 5-6 minutes. Stir in rice grains to coat in butter.

Pour in remaining ingredients. Cover, bring to boil, then reduce heat to low and cook 5 minutes less than what is listed on rice package directions {should be about 15 minutes.}

Turn heat off rice, but keep on hot burner for 10 minutes to steam and prevent scorching. Fluff rice with fork, remove bay leaves and serve as desired.
