Corn and Rice Medleys

I have two recipes that are corn/rice medleys:

Corn and Rice Medley #1

1 cup rice
2 cups water
1 tablespoons butter
2 cups fresh corn kernels
3 - 4 green onions, sliced thinly
1/2 teaspoon white sugar
Salt and Pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS
Cook the rice and water like normal until water is absorbed and rice is tender.
Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in corn, onions, sugar, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 to 6 minutes, or until tender.
In a serving bowl combine cooked rice and corn mixture.


Corn and Rice Medley #2

1 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup uncooked long grain rice
1/4 cup chopped sweet red pepper
1 green onion, chopped
1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil
1/2 cup frozen corn, thawed
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese

In a saucepan, bring broth to a boil; add rice. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small skillet, saute the red pepper and green onion in oil until tender. Stir into rice. Add the corn. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until rice is tender. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
