Preheat a pot to medium-high heat with half the butter. Add the brown rice, and stir to coat with the butter and toast for 2 minutes or so. Add the chicken stock, cover, and cook to package directions.

Meanwhile, cook the barley in water according to the package directions, and mince the garlic clove.

When both grains are cooked, combine together with the remaining butter and garlic. Stir, and taste - add some salt if you'd like!

Serve with your favorite protein and veg for a great balanced meal.
