This rice recipe was a hit with my family and friends on Mother's Day. It was so delicious and all the mothers that I prepared dinner for really enjoyed it.

Delicious! I'm a dedicated rice lover and this dish won me over. Changes I made were to cut the butter in half, added a little olive oil to brown the orzo, only one garlic clove and the onion down to 1/4 cup. No more Rice-a-Roni for us!

This recipe is delicious with a few additions! I always double the recipe but follow the steps exactly, except when it comes time to add the onion I also add diced carrots and mushrooms (I never measure this but its probably about 1/2-3/4 cup each). Then, when I add the stock I also include about 1/2-3/4 c. of frozen peas. After everything has cooked and the rice has absorbed all the liquid, I gently stir in about 1/4-1/2 lb. of slivered toasted almonds (I always end up buying the almonds raw and dry toasting them myself). With these additions my family and friends love this recipe, and I get requests for it all the time!

Yum! Doubled the rice and Orzo. Used instant (Minute) rice and upped the chicken broth to 3 cups. Take the time to brown the Orzo pasta. Added some fresh parsley and grated parmesan at the end. Delicious!! Will be making this again and again!

Sarah's Rice Pilaf was the perfect side dish for my grilled chicken. Perfect just as written. Thanks Sarah!

Simple and satisfying, especially with few and easy ingredients. Not the best pilaf I've ever had, but for the simplicity it is awesome. Can easily adjust taste to add more depth with additional veggies and/or spices.

Made this for dinner tonight along with some Greek style chicken, steamed broccoli, pita bread and tzatziki sauce. Of everything I made, my husband said, "You're the winner tonight!" to Sarah's Rice Pilaf. Thanks, Sarah!
