Mine always turns out a different color than the picture - more brown. But it is truly delicious with either shallots or onions, and even in a pinch I just used garlic & it was great.

    Great rice recipe! I only made two small changes to the recipe. First, I used about a tablespoon of dried onion flakes instead of the minced onion (because of the picky kids and I thought they would be harder to see). Second, I used beef broth instead of the chicken because I was serving the rice with beef. The rice turned out perfect, just as Mean had said. I didn't have an oven-safe saucepan with lid, so I pre-heated the oven with a corningware dish, and made the rice on the stove with the saucepan. Then, I transfered the rice to the corningware dish when going into the oven. It worked fine, but I'm now in search of new oven-safe cookware! Thanks for a great recipe Mean Chef!

    WOW! Very easy and wonderful. I used beef broth as family doesn't like chicken.
