“This was delicious. I was a bit nervous because I always do rice in the rice cooker and not usually on the stove top, but it was super easy and came out perfect. The only thing i added was about a teaspoon of garlic powder to the chicken broth before pouring” — a cook, 5.0★
“Thanks for the save tonight! I greatly appreciate it. We needed something different and I found this recipe. I did use unsalted chicken broth but everything went well and was not too salty, which was my worry. Thanks again!” — a cook, 5.0★
