“A unique tomato topping for rice that doesn't use garlic. It has the wonderfully rich flavor of tarragon and is quick and easy to prepare. Goes well with grilled chicken or salmon.” - by ROBBIN1

Ingredients

1 cup uncooked long-grain white rice
2 cups water
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice
1 tablespoon dry vermouth (optional)
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 teaspoons dried tarragon
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 dash ground black pepper

Directions

In a pot, bring the rice and water to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 20 minutes.
In a separate pot over medium heat, mix the tomatoes, vermouth, brown sugar, tarragon, basil, sea salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes, until most of the liquid has been reduced. Serve over the cooked rice.

"This has a nice flavor. It was easy to make. Ingredients are on hand so that makes it even easier. I didn't have any vermouth. So I used Gin instead. Ended up tasting okay to me...." See more"
