Golden Coconut Rice Skillet

Method

1. Start by prepping your long-grain rice, olive oil, yellow onion so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the garlic in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the coconut rice and let it golden, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Fold in the olive oil and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Pour in the cream, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with a knob of butter right before serving.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
