While peppers broil, cook the basmati rice: Combine rice, 1 cup water, and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low, and cook for 15-18 minutes until water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.

Add diced yellow onion and sliced celery to the skillet. Cook until tender, about 3-5 minutes. Add minced garlic and golden raisins, and cook for another 2 minutes until garlic is fragrant.
