A delightful and easy-to-make rice dish infused with fresh lemon and herbs, perfect for any occasion.
Heat the butter and olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Ensure the butter is fully melted and mixed with the oil before proceeding.
Add the green onions, reserving a small portion for garnish, and sauté until fragrant.
Stir constantly to prevent the onions from browning too much.
Stir in the rice and cook until it is lightly toasted.
Toasting the rice enhances its flavor and prevents it from becoming mushy.
Add the peas, lemon juice, lemon zest, parsley, salt, and black pepper, and mix well.
Adjust the seasoning to your taste at this stage.
Garnish with the reserved green onions and chopped walnuts before serving.
Serve immediately to enjoy the dish at its freshest.
