I always like to throw in about 1/4 cup of wild rice as part of the 2 cups of white rice to add a great taste and look, oh I use Sea Salt instead of regular salt. It is healthier and tastier!

This is a pretty good basic recipe. I tweaked it by adding 1/2 cup each of frozen corn and peas. I will be making this one again.

I liked the hint of chicken flavor 2 cubes gave - just enough taste so my husband didn't need to dowse his portion in soy sauce.

I make this all the time, although I use 1 boullion cube per cup of water, salt and pepper. Turns out great everytime!

I use canned chicken broth in place of the water & Bouillon cubes. A little butter, salt & pepper after its done. Add any cooked vegetables or Rotel tomatoes and you have a great and easy side dish.

I added salt and butter to mine. Actually, this is pretty close to the way I make rice (adding salt and butter really helps!), and I also like to add some frozen veggies to it, makes for a nice time-saver sidedish.

Good but plain. I added an extra stock cube and sprinkled parsley ontop. A nice base to start with though.

I love doing this... but you have to put one cube per one cup of water. This recipe does not have enough bouillon cubes. I also add 1-2 tbsp minced onion and/or chives and a can of mushrooms (drained). Give this a try to change-up your rice. :)

Not much taste here. This recipe needs to be tinkered with. For starters, more bouillon is needed. I would also add some oregano, maybe a bit of garlic powder and some vegetables. Not good as is, but could be with some work.

This is a good base for flavor, but as it stands it's pretty bland. I sauteed 1/2 onion is 2T butter added 2 minced garlic cloves and then tossed in the rice. After it was clear I added the water and bouillon and cooked as directed.

I do something similar to this recipe. I use 1 chicken boullion cube per cup of water and add about 1/2 to 1 tsp or oregano or basil to the water as well. My rice always comes out a little creamier and more flavorful than plain rice... Hope this helps!

This rice was awful. It had no flavor, and I suppose the only thing I can think of that would make it better would be to add more bouillon, but I did add more than the recipe called for. I will not be making this again.

I've been making rice like this for over 30 years. However, I've found that the amount of bouillon cubes, or teaspoons of dry or paste bouillon should equal the total amount of ingredients. Therefore, for 4 cups of water and 2 cups of rice, you would add 6 portions of chicken flavoring. I also use beef, pork and fish bouillon depending on what I'm serving it with.

I cut this recipe in half and used about 3 bouillon cubes (I used granules and didn't measure). The rice came out wonderful.
