Golden Rice Pilaf

Directions

Bring water to a boil. Once water is boiling, add rice, cover, and reduce to simmer. Simmer for 15 minutes without removing the lid. Let the pot of rice sit, covered, for 5-10 minutes. While the rice is cooking, in large non-stick skillet, heat oil and add onion, celery, and carrot. Saute over medium-high heat until vegetables are soft and onions are translucent. Remove from heat and stir in the herbs. Add vegetable mixture to cooked rice, fluff with a fork, and serve immediately.
