Lemony Rice Pilaf

By Beefman-2

This takes plain ol' rice to a new level. Goes particularly well with chicken. If you don't use chicken stock, this side dish is vegetarian/vegan.

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon vegetable oil, preferably canola oil
• 1 cup finely chopped onion
• 1 1/2 cups long grain white rice
• 3 cups chicken stock (vegetable stock makes this vegetarian/vegan)
• 1 grated lemon, rind of
• 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 1/2 cup coarsely chopped flat-leaf Italian parsley
• fresh ground pepper
