Ingredients
Butter, unsalted, 2 tbsp Pasta, about 1/8th of a package, broken up White Rice, 1.5 cup (raw)Chicken and/or Beef broth to total 3 cups. I used 1.25c chicken and 1.75c beef.
Directions
Melt butter in a saucepan on medium-high.
Add pasta. Stir occasionally. Cook till starting to brown.
Add rice. Stir occasionally, cooking for up to 1 minute more.
Add Broth(s). Bring to a boil. Turn heat down to lowest setting. Cover and cook for about 20 minutes or until all the liquid has been absorbed.

[I find that my stove is quite hot even on low, so I will turn it off for up to five minutes in the middle of the cooking time. The water is still hot enough for the rice to absorb it, but the bottom doesn't get burned.]
