Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 Tbsp vegetable oil
8 oz portabella mushrooms, coarsely chopped
1 small onion, chopped
2 clove garlic, minced
1 1/2 c pearl barley, uncooked, washed and drained
3 c fat free low sodium chicken broth or 3 cups vegetable broth
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
2 Tbsp fresh dill, snipped or 2 teaspoons dried dill

Steps:

  • 1. Heat a medium nonstick saucepan over medium heat. Pour the oil into the pan and swirl to coat the bottom. Cook the mushrooms, onion, and garlic for 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms have released some of their juices and the onions are translucent, stirring occasionally.
  • 2. Stir in the barley; cook for 1 minute. Stir in the broth, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low; cook, covered, for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the barley is tender.
  • 3. Remove from the heat. Stir in the dill-weed and enjoy.

This pilaf was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.

This dish was easy to make and turned out delicious. I used a variety of wild mushrooms that I found at my local farmers market.
