Ingredients

4 servings

2 cups chicken broth
1 cup long-grain white rice (uncooked)
2 tablespoons butter (divided)
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
2 cups diced summer squash (or zucchini, diced ¼-inch)
1 clove garlic (minced)
1 small tomato (diced)
½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
salt and black pepper (to taste )
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps

Bring chicken broth, rice, 1 tablespoon of butter, and Italian seasoning to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cover. Cook 15 minutes or until rice is tender.
Meanwhile, heat remaining butter over medium heat in a small skillet. Add summer squash and garlic and cook just until squash is tender, about 5 minutes.
Once rice is cooked, stir in cooked squash, tomato, parmesan cheese, and salt & pepper to taste. Cover and let rest 5 minutes.
Garnish with parsley and additional parmesan cheese if desired.
