Ingredients:
Instructions:

- Finely chop the onion.
- Slice the mushrooms.
- Chop the chives.
- In a large pot or deep skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic and chopped onion to the pot. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and the garlic is fragrant.

- Pour in the vegetable broth, ensuring that the rice is fully submerged. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and let it simmer for about 40-45 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of butter until melted and fully incorporated into the rice.
- Finally, sprinkle the chopped chives over the rice, stirring gently to distribute them evenly.

- Feel free to substitute vegetable broth with chicken broth if you prefer a non-vegetarian version.
- Ensure your rice is properly rinsed to remove excess starch and prevent clumping.
