Easy No-Oil Spanish Rice

I found this recipe on AllRecipes and made the healthier version below.  The oil does add something to the taste of cooked onion, so if I were making this for someone outside my family, I would use the oil as the original recipe says.  However, Sameer and Simran liked my version, which is substantially healthier and lower in fat.

Ingredients
2 tbs chopped onion
1 1/2 cups uncooked rice
2 cups low sodium vegetable broth
1 cup chunky salsa

Directions

  1. Cook onion in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until tender, about 5 minutes.
  2. Mix rice into skillet, stirring often until toasted lightly. Stir in broth and salsa. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 20 minutes, until liquid has been absorbed.
