Quick, easy and delicious; even better with chicken broth. Steam rather than boil asparagus. When cooking just a few servings, increase the broth to prevent the pilaff from drying out before it is cooked.

We loved this! Especially my daughter (who is not usually too keen on asparagus)...she told me that she couldn't wait to have the leftovers for lunch the next day! The only change I made was to use basmati rice instead of jasmine (because that's what I had on hand). Great recipe!

I thought this was pretty good. I steamed the asparagus and that worked very well. I was expecting great things from the reviews, and it wasn't THAT great to me.

Tastes nice, I added some ham to make it a one dish meal. However, the spaghetti does not seem to be necessary (don't see what role it plays in terms of either flavor or texture).

This was sooooo good! I cooked the rice mixture for 15 min. covered. It was just the right consistency. I used chicken stock instead of veg. Just a personal preference. We added some leftover grilled chicken on top. Very light and flavorful.

This recipe is excellent! It has a wonderful flavor. I decided to use brown rice instead of jasmine. I adjusted the cooking time but found that there wasn't enough liquid to fully cook the brown rice. Next time I will use brown minute rice. Even with partially cooked rice this was awesome, so I know it will be even better next time. With every bite my husband and I said "mmmm..." It really is delicious! One thing to note: the recipe calls for 2 1/4 cups of broth. Most cans of broth are 2 cups - I just added a litte water to make it 2 1/4 c. so I wouldn't waste another can of broth. I also steamed the aspargus in my vegetable steamer.

This recipe is absolutely delicious! I didn't have vegetable broth, so I used chicken broth instead. It's so easy to prepare, I'll be making this recipe many more times.

I made this tonight to complement lemon rosemary chicken. It was delicious! Like others, I made substitutions for the ingredients I had on hand: regular long grain rice, and bullion for the broth. I only used 1 Tb of butter in a non-stick pan, added more garlic and more asparagus, which I cooked with sliced lemon. It came out delicious! We're cubing the remaining lemon chicken to add to this dish for lunch tomorrow!

My whole family loved this! I made it last week and they asked for it again this week. While it was cooking one daughter said she couldn't wait to eat since we were having this rice again. I forgot to add the cashews and it was still fantastic.

Yum Yum Yum! I cused chicken broth and reduced fat butter. I used regular white rice because I didn't have jasmine. When I was making it I thought "i should have just bouth rice a roni" boy, was I wrong. Ten times better than anything boxed. I served this with Cajun Barbecubed chicken from this site and a side of corn. We cubed the leftover chickne threw that and the corn into this rice dish and had wonderful leftovers.

This is a great dish. Recipe works well; I added 1/4 C chopped mushrooms and it was great. May add carrots next time, too - will definitely make again! Husband wanted a little soy sauce in it, but I thought it was good as is. Pretty buttery. Next time, I'll healthy it up a bit and reduce butter. Could add a tad white wine when sauteeing, too. YUM!

I made this dish as a vegetarian entree and served it with a salad for a light dinner. I was out of Jasmine rice, so I substituted another long grain rice. I also used half the amount of butter and instead used a combination of olive and coconut oil. The spaghetti I used was whole grain. I also stirred in a little shredded coconut before serving...this helped make up for the lack of fragrant jasmine rice. And we amped up the garlic and asparagus a little bit, along with a spot of cajun spice. This dish had a great flavor and texture appeal. It seems like wild rice would have been a fine substitute for the spaghetti. We'll be making this again sometime, probably as a side dish.
