This is a good side when serving a rich main dish. I served this with a creamy scallop recipe and it was perfect. I used chicken broth instead of water.

A very tasty side dish and a terrific alternative to the boxed rice mixes...a bit healthier I imagine as well. Absolutely delicious and one to be made many times in the future. As an addition to the herbal flavor, I added a bay leaf to the water and let it cook with the rice until I added the other herbs as prescribed. Also, this recipe works equally well with dried herbs if you find yourself out of fresh. I used one teaspoon each of dried dill and dried onion (I've never seen a dried scallion, and two teaspoons of dried parsley...the results were just as good for my family!

I have never used dill in cooking before, and I liked it. the rice was very light, but good. I just felt like it was missing something. maybe a little acid.

My husband is a rice snob - and he even gives this recipe 2 thumbs up. It's easy and delicious. I sometimes add 3 bouillon cubes to the water to make it more savory.

The first time we made it, we forgot the lemon and it tasted over-salty. I've done it right since, but I still think it's a bit heavy on the salt. It's really good with the scallops, a great summer eveining meal. It is a little bit involved for a simple seafood and rice meal, so I like to have a helper.

This rice dish is ultra simple. The flavors are fresh and light. The best part is, since the herbs are added at the end, I can add parsley and scallions to the whole batch and remove some of the rice for my husband before adding the dill, which he doesn't like. I make it often.
