Peppy Franks with Rice

Combine the uncooked rice, water, and a pinch of salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes until the rice is tender and the water is fully absorbed.

While the rice is cooking, remove the frankfurters from the package and slice them into 1/2-inch rounds, or leave them whole depending on your preference.

Melt the butter or margarine in a large skillet over medium heat, swirling the pan to coat the surface evenly.

Add the sliced or whole frankfurters to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are lightly browned and heated through.

Season the frankfurters with salt to taste, stirring to ensure even seasoning throughout the pan.

Remove the cooked rice from heat and fluff it gently with a fork to separate the grains.

Spoon a generous portion of steamed white rice onto each serving plate or bowl. Top with the buttered frankfurters and drizzle any remaining butter from the skillet over the top before serving immediately.
