Very Good ... and Thank You. Learning to flavor my rice has really made even the simplist of meals an adventure. One hint I would like to offer in step # 2. Take the time to make sure each grain of rice is coated with the oil before adding the chicken stock. This step will make the pilaf light and fluffy.

Great rice dish. I used cilantro instead of the parsely. I also used the juice of a whole lemon. I added garlic to the onions as well. Looking forward to the leftovers tonight!!

Made this dish with short grain organic brown rice instead of long grain white rice with nice results. Nutty, lemony, light... quite well received. Added a little salt for a bit more flavor. This also worked VERY well reheated with the addition of some grated parmesan cheese; flavor is more intense the 2nd time around and makes me wonder about prepping this a day before I intend to serve it next time.

We really love rice, and this was so good. I forgot to buy the parsley so used lemon thyme instead. It was a great addition.

Wonderful rice dish! I'm not usually a big fan of rice but this was absolutely great. I served it along side of Oven Baked Maine Fish (#21553) and some steamed baby carrots. Great Meal! Will do this one again and again. Didn't change a thing except to use veggie broth instead of chicken. Thanks for a great recipe!

Loved the lemon flavour in this rice dish, quick and easy to prepare too. Will make it again. Thanks for another great one Lennie.

Very good versatile rice dish. I think this would also be delicious subbing fresh chopped mint for the parsley. I had this with garlic shrimp last night and it was really well received. I would recommend this as a good staple for your recipe files.

We enjoyed it with mint chicken. A BIGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS MARVELLOUS RECIPE!!

Something different from the ordinary. I like the lemon flavor in this dish. I used Basmati rice, reduced sodium chicken broth and dried parley. After the first step, I cooked mine in a rice cooker and it was done in 15 minutes. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
