Really enjoyed this rice. After sauteing I through everything in the rice cooker (wow that was easy). Tasty and a nice change from plain rice.

Very good! I made some changes. I used 2 cloves of garlic and reduced the broth to 3 cups. Used enough olive oil to cover bottom of pan before adding 2 stocks celery and one small onion along with chopped garlic with the rice. Followed directions till time to put into casserole dish. Did not grease 2 qt.casserole dish.Covered. Microwaved for 5 minutes on high setting. Stirred with fork to fluff rice and cooked for 7 minutes on high. Served with roasted chicken. Yummy!

My first homemade pilaf, and very nice. The way I made it was a 5, but required modifications. Used margarine instead of butter to lower fat. Added lots of crushed garlic to the simmered veggies just before baking. Made veggie stock with cubes. Next time I might add a few more veggies. Mine was ready to eat in about 40 mins baked at 325, but the broth was warm when I poured over the rice.

Love this recipe. The only change I made was substituted red bell pepper for the celery. Rice has tons of flavor and came out perfect.

Waaaaay too much celery. Completely overpowering. Next time, a pinch of celery salt or 1 tsp of celery leaves will do you....or none. I will never make this again with celery (and I like celery).

It's great to have a rice dish to just put in the oven and forget about till it's serving time. The rice was done to perfection with the cooking time and temperature given. This rice should be paired with a highly flavoured dish as it is pretty bland on its own - not a bad thing necessarily. Made with vegetable broth instead of chicken broth (perhaps that made it more bland) and veggie worcestershire to adapt to our mixed vegetarian/nonvegetarian household. Thanks!

It was my first attempt to make rice not from out of a box haha. Mine turned out creamy and very flavorful. I did add garlic. It did take longer than 50 minutes though probably about an hour and 15 minutes

Love it!! I used italian seasoning instead of the others and it was wonderful. It probably doesn't need the extra butter, but it sure did taste good.

I liked this rice once I finally got done. I cooked it in the oven, per the recipe, for 50 min. and nothing happened. I ended up cooking it in the microwave. I'll try it again, but not in the oven.

I did not put celery in it and added red peppers. I made a couple other changes but it was okay. I think it need a little more flavor. But i did not have some of the items so that is way i made some changes but next time i will see if it is better the way the recipe says!

Very good. I did this on the stove instead of the oven, turned out great, I used 2 cups chicken stock and two cups of water with "better than bouillion" seasoning added to that, turned out very flavorful did not need to add anything else to it . Even my 4 and 6 year olds loved it.

This dish did not have enough flavor for me. However, after reading the reviews, I used Bemused 1 suggestion and used the beef broth and beef boulin cube instead of the chicken broth. I also added a package of frozen peas and I used whole grain brown rice. This way it's a keeper!

This rice pilaf was really nice and surprising easy to make. I made a variation of it and my husband really liked it, and he's not much for rice. I didn't have worchestershire sauce, but I did add soya sauce. First I very finely diced sweet onion, celery, red pepper and mushrooms. I sauteeds the first three with some butter and the rice, then added everything else as instructed. I did my in a covered sautee pan on the stove for 20 minutes and it worked out great. I only used half the butter called for and I found that I could probably halve that again. I used low-sodium chicken broth and added a bit more salt to taste at the end, as well as some pepper. I think this pilaf is a great way to use of left over veggies and maybe even chicken that you have a hand. Just throw everything together!
