Step 1

Heat oil in a 3- to 4-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. When oil shimmers, add onions and salt and saute until onions are translucent, 3 minutes.

Add rice and garlic to pan and saute until rice is toasted and fragrant, 2 minutes.

Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 5 minutes before serving.
