Parcooked rice and zucchini

Ingredients:

1) 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth

2) 1 cup of long-grain white rice (or brown)

3) salt and pepper

4) 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter

5) 2 small zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced thin

6) 1 cup frozen corn kernels

7) 3 scallions, sliced thin

Directions:

Combine 1 cup of broth, rice, and 3/4 teaspoon of salt in a large bowl.  Cover tightly with plastic wrap and microwave until broth is completely absorbed, about 8 minutes.  Melt remaining butter in a skillet.  Add zucchini and corn and cook until browned, about 3 minutes.  Transfer to a medium bowl.  Add parcooked rice and remaining broth to skillet and bring to boil.  Cook covered on medium-low for about 12-15 minutes.  Stir in vegetables and scallions.  Cover and let sit for about 2 minutes.
