- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 1½ cups (277.5 g) uncooked long-grain white rice
- 3 cups (720 g) chicken stock
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt (if using table salt, use ¼ teaspoon)
- ¼ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- ½ cup (50g) parmesan cheese, grated

- Add uncooked rice and toss to coat evenly in the butter mixture.
- Add stock, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
