Rice with carrots and onions in the oven

Since the dish will be baked, first of all it is necessary to turn on the oven at 180 degrees Celsius for preheating.

Then you should prepare all the necessary ingredients for the dish.
Rice (long-grained is better) is well rinsed several times with cold water until the water becomes completely transparent and clean.

Wash all the necessary vegetables under running water, dry on paper towels and peel.
The onion must be finely chopped.
Carrots are best cut into small cubes.
Green sweet pepper can be crushed in any form.
Cut the celery into small pieces.

Transfer the raw washed rice to a fireproof glass or cast-iron baking dish of a suitable size (with a volume of more than 2 liters). Add all previously chopped vegetables to it.

Season rice with vegetables with all the necessary spices - salt, a small amount of ground red pepper and garlic powder.

Pour chicken broth into the baking dish. And mix all the ingredients well together, evenly distributing them over the entire area of the mold. It is necessary that the broth completely covers rice, carrots and other vegetables.

If chicken broth is replaced with vegetable broth, then the dish can become completely vegetarian.

Once the rice and other ingredients are distributed, cover the top of the baking dish with food foil. On the sides, pinch the edges tightly so that air does not penetrate.

Put the baking dish with rice in the already heated oven for about an hour.

After the specified time, remove the baking dish from the oven and carefully remove the top layer of foil. Put ready-made rice with carrots and onions on serving plates and garnish with fresh herbs.

Bon appetit!
