Au Jus Mushroom Rice – seriously delicious! Rice slow cooked in butter, onion, oregano, salt, pepper, beef broth, au jus gravy mix and mushrooms. I could make a meal out of this delicious rice!!! Ready to eat in under 30 minutes! Add some leftover steak, ground beef or pork for a quick main dish. #rice #beef #mushrooms

This Au Jus Mushroom Rice was a huge hit in our house! Chicken Legs is a HUGE mushroom fan, so he ate two big helpings of this easy rice with dinner. Rice, beef broth, au jus gravy mix and mushrooms. YUM! We eat this rice as a side, but you could add some cooked ground beef or leftover pork tenderloin and make a meal out of this recipe. LOVE recipes that can do double duty!

This rice is super easy to make. Start with sautéing the mushrooms and rice in some butter in a skillet. Cook the mixture just until the rice starts to brown. Add some beef broth, onion, au jus gravy mix, and oregano. Bring to a boil and let it simmer until the rice has cooked. SO easy.

We served this Au Jus Mushroom Rice with some delicious grilled steaks. It was perfect. The rice takes about 20 to 25 minutes to cook and absorb the liquid. I usually start the rice when Chicken Legs starts prepping the grill and the steaks and rice are done about the same time. Perfect!
