Once the butter has browned, add the onions and saute until tender.
Check the rice to make sure the broth has all been absorbed; if not, continue cooking until it has been, probably no more than an additional 5 minutes.
Once the rice is cooked and the broth is absorbed, pour the brown butter with onions over the top and stir to coat.

If you do not have chicken broth on hand, you can use water with chicken bouillon instead.
If you use regular broth instead of low sodium, make sure you reduce the salt in the recipe to 1/2 teaspoon.
