The first few times I made this, I followed the recipe exactly........perfection !!!! So easy and I love that it is cooked off in the oven. The great thing about this recipe is you can take it so many places....adding herbs & spices or garlic to accompany the rest of your meal which is what I do now. I love it & so does my family. So say good-bye to all Rice-A-Roni flavors FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just like what was promised - quick and easy! I added additional seasonings (garlic powder and some pepper) and no salt since we are watching our sodium intake. The rice came out light and fluffy. Much better than stove top cooking.

I did not follow the recipe exactly. I continued cooking it on the stove top after boiling the broth and let it simmer about 15 minutes. Should have gone longer as it was a bit al dente. Will do that next time. Flavor was great!

So easy, so simple. Made it with the chicken cordon blue II. I didn't time it right, so I added a touch more broth, turned off the oven and left the rice in there until the chicken was done (another 20 minutes). It was PERFECT!

Quick and easy, especially if you use a rice cooker. Simply sautee the onions in butter, add the rice and continue sauteeing until lightly browned. Transfer the rice to the rice cooker and add broth. Cook as usual in the rice cooker. So simple!

I really love this recipe! The first time I made it I didn't have chicken broth so I used beef broth and added mushrooms and halved the onions, otherwise I followed the recipe. It was awesome and I will be making it for years to come. The second time I made it I followed the directions exactly and found it a bit too oniony. So I will continue to use half of an onion rather than a whole one. All together a great, easy and very tastey rice recipe that will be added to our regular meal rotation. Thanks for the recipe :)

This rice is easy to make and super delicious! I have made both as written, and also with a few changes. When frying the onion I also add 2 cloves of garlic and chopped up carrot (or sometimes with a frozen veggie mix - carrot, beans, peas and corn). I then spray the pan with cooking spray. When I transfer the rice to the dish I add another approx. 1/8 cup of chicken broth. I then stir rice about every 10 mins to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the dish or from getting to crunchy on top. When cooking I also add about another 1/8 cup of broth. I have cooked the rice at 350 as well (due to having something else in the oven) and cooked it for an extra 10 minutes - I did not have to add the extra broth during cooking this way. This rice is fantastic - my husband requests it at least once a week, enjoy!
