Notes

  • -This recipe scales down easily; to make 4 servings, simply cut the recipe in half.
  • -For a richer flavor, substitute low-sodium chicken broth for the water.
  • -Measure the liquid carefully; too much water can make the finished rice gummy.
  • -Stir in a handful of chopped soft fresh herbs, such as parsley, dill, basil, or chives at the end of cooking for extra flavor.
  • -Use leftover rice to stuff bell peppers or to make fried rice.
