QuantityIngredient
2tablespoonsPeanut oil
1smallOnion -- diced
1cupLong-grain rice
1cupChicken stock
1cupCoconut milk -- unsweetened

Directions

Preheat oven to 350. In a large saute pan, heat the oil over medium high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the onion and saute, stirring frequently, until just transparent, about 5 minutes. Add the rice and continue to cook, stirring frequently, for 1 minute.

Add the chicken stock and coconut milk, bring to a simmer, and add salt and pepper. Cover the pan tightly, put it in the oven and bake for about 18 minutes. All the liquid should be absorbed and the rice should be cooked through but not mushy.
