Ingredients You’ll Need For Stick of Butter Rice Recipe With Beef Broth

• Long Grain White Rice: This is the foundation of the dish. Long grain rice stays separate and fluffy while soaking up all that buttery, beefy goodness. Jasmine or basmati rice are great choices if you want a little extra aroma and texture.
• Condensed French Onion Soup: This pantry shortcut does the heavy lifting when it comes to flavor.
• Beef Broth: Bold and hearty, beef broth gives this rice a deeper, more robust flavor than the chicken version. It’s what makes this version so satisfying with red meat or winter meals.
• Unsalted Butter: Butter transforms this dish into something special. It melts into the rice as it bakes, creating a creamy, almost risotto-like texture, without any stirring. Butter with no added salt keeps things balanced, especially with the salty soup mix.

Together, these simple ingredients create a warm, comforting side dish that tastes far more indulgent than the effort it takes. Stick of Butter Rice with Beef Broth is rich, flavorful, and the kind of recipe you’ll want to make on repeat.

How to Make Stick of Butter Rice Recipe with Beef Broth:

1. Preheat: Set your oven to 425°F and grease an 8×8-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
2. Mix: In a large bowl, stir together the rice, condensed french onion soup, and beef broth. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
3. Top: Slice the butter into small pieces and scatter evenly over the top of the rice mixture.
4. Bake: Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
5. Uncover: Remove the foil and bake for 20 more minutes to allow the top to lightly brown and the edges to crisp up.

How To Store and Reheat This Rice Dish

Let the rice cool completely, then transfer it to an airtight container and store it in the fridge for up to 4 days. To reheat individual servings, microwave with a splash of beef broth or water to loosen it up. For larger portions, warm it on the stovetop over low heat or cover with foil and bake at 325°F until hot.

To freeze, divide the rice into freezer-safe containers or resealable bags, flatten, and freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat straight from frozen in the microwave for 2–3 minutes, breaking it up halfway through, or thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
