This is a great way to serve rice. The 'green' comes from parsley and green onion. Very tasty and easy! Found this in 2002 Quick Cooking Recipes.

This was too bland and the parsley overpowered the dish. I realized after the fact that it called for no salt, but boy could it have used some. I might try it again with more seasoning and possibly substitute cilantro for the parsley.

    This rice was delicious and very quick and easy to make. I followed your directions exactly and got a tasty pot of rice which was served with baby back pork ribs, yellow beans and sweet carrotes. It was a perfect match for all the dishes, great texture and flavors. I will certainly make this again.

    Delicious, easy to prepare and a good way to use up some excess parsley. I think I might add just a smidge of garlic nrxt time, but not too much.

    I love this! It was so easy prepared in my rice cooker! I sauteed rice, parsley and green onions in my rice cooker with olive oil and butter before adding in the chicken broth, cayenne and bay leaf. Cooked on the regular cycle ~ and there you have it! Thanks for a delicious rice dish, Mama's Kitchen!
