Easy Oven Brown Rice

Easy Oven Brown Rice bakes up fluffy and tender, with each grain separate and lightly enriched by butter and a touch of salt. It’s a no-fuss side that pairs well with weeknight mains or meal-prep bowls, delivering consistent texture without stovetop babysitting. Serve it warm alongside roasted meats, vegetables, or saucy dishes.
