This spicy rice pilaf recipe makes a delicious side dish. It goes well with meats and veggies. It's very tasty with a little bit of spice! I love garlic, so if you don't like it as much as I do, just add two cloves instead of six.
Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, red pepper, mushrooms, and garlic; cook and stir until tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in rice, then add chicken stock. Cover and boil until liquid is absorbed, about 10 minutes. Season with red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
