Servings: 4

2 1/2 cups water
1 Tbsp butter
1 cup rice
1/3 cup toasted pine nuts
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 Tbsp freshly grated lemon zest
parsley to taste
salt to taste

Bring water and butter to a boil, add rice, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, toast pine nuts in a dry frying pan over medium heat until golden brown (be careful, they burn very easily), and set aside.

When rice is done, remove from heat, stir in lemon juice, lemon zest, parsley, and pine nuts. Season with salt, and serve.
