This worked great for me! I used Nishiki sushi rice (that's what we have in the house all the time) and a rice cooker, and onion powder instead of minced dried onion. It made a wonderful bed for the tilapia. Next time, though, I'm going to increase the bouillon just a tad...my rice cooker seems to sap the salt out of just about anything I put in there.

I also used the rice cooker with Basmati rice, chicken broth and the other ingredients. It came out perfect and even my daughter liked it. Thanks for the recipe.

I threw everything in the rice cooker and walked away. So easy. Like the other reviewers, I used a can of chicken broth instead of the water and bouillon and only one cup of rice. Had lots of flavor! EDIT: I highly suggest buying a can of "College Inn Chicken Broth with Herbs". This really helps to give more flavor to the rice without seeming like too much. I still add all the parsley.

This was a fantastic rice pilaf. I needed something that would go with my sweet and spicey salmon and not overpower it.The flavors all went together just perfect. The only thing I did do differently was I used brown rice and low sodium chicken stock.....thank you for a great recipe

Good, basic, and just a little twist on the plain old white rice side dish. We loved it and I'll be adding it as a stample for rice dishes.

Very tasty and easy side dish! I used one cup of regular long grain rice instead of the two cups of instant and it came out great (I don't usually have instant rice on hand). It was very good served with my chicken piccata. Will definately keep this one in my files.

Excellent! I didn't have minced onion so I used onion powder. Instead of parsley I added chives. The whole family loved this and the first thing my hubby said about dinner was "wow, great rice".

This was GREAT! It was just just what I was looking for to go with my salmon dish. I didn't have fresh parsley, I used dried and used a little less than 1/4 cup still tasted GREAT! I also used real long grain rice not the instant.

This was a very simple and turned out great! I didn't use instant rice because I hate that stuff; I used Basmati Rice instead and I didn't have any dried minced onion so I threw in some onion powder! Still turned out great - had a nice flavour! Thanks for the recipe!

This rice is so tasty. I have tried a couple of other recipes for rice pilaf on this site that I like better, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with this one. It is so easy, and we enjoyed it so much. Thank you Kathy!
