Turmeric rice

This rice is specific to go along side Tarragon chicken. It's not much by itself, but yummy with the Tarragon chicken sauce. I usually double the recipe

2 Tablespoons butter
2 Tablespoons finely minced onion
1 clove garlic minced
1 cup rice
1 tablespoon powdered Turmeric
1-1/2 cups chicken broth
1 bay leaf

Melt half of butter in sauce pan and add onion and garlic. cook until wilted and add rice and turmeric to coat. Add broth and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Cover, lower heat and cook exactly 17 minutes. uncover and stir in remaining butter.
