Creamy Cranberry Brown Rice with Toasted Hazelnuts
Servings: 4
Adding to the fall festivities, make this rice which is brightened with shining dried cranberries that glisten like a shimmering red leaf. The rice cooks up creamy like a risotto but because of the instant rice and the addition of cream cheese, there is a lot less work involved.

Directions
Heat the butter in a small skillet coated with DuPont™ Teflon® non-stick and saute the hazelnuts until golden brown and toasted, 3 to 4 minutes.
In a medium saucepan coated with DuPont™ Teflon® non-stick, heat the oil and saute the onions until translucent. Add the rice, stirring well with a wooden spoon. Add the broth mixture; bring to a boil and cover, simmering until the liquid is all absorbed, about 20 minutes. Add the cream cheese in batches, stirring to incorporate. Fold in the cranberries and the nuts and sprinkle with Pecorino Romano cheese and orange zest.
