Every time I make this rice it is a huge hit! My daughters request this dish often no matter what else is for dinner. They would be happy with the rice alone! I have a friend who invites me over and then will casually ask if I mind making that rice dish since I'm over. I take it as a great compliment each time someone asks me to make something I've cooked!

    When mixture begins to boil, reduce heat to low. This is where you want to add your seasonings. I usually add a dash of black pepper and salt. I like this dish because it is a great side for fish or chicken and you can add fresh herbs and different spices depending on your tastes.
