    Meh. I loved the chicken from this episode, but I didn't find much flavor in this and have pretty much all of it left. I will use it for burritos tomorrow I think.

    Simple and delicious! My hubby and I both really enjoyed this rice. It was so easy to make and didn't take a lot of time. I will definitely be using this recipe a lot in the future.

    I just made this rice. It came out ok. I am not use to making rice if it is not Uncle Ben's. I have the cheap rice and I am learning how to make the perfect rice with it. The next time I make it I will use 3 cups of water, and I think the water was too hot not warm when I cooked it. It was my error. So next time I will make it exactly as the recipe says and I am sure it will come out perfect like the recipe says.
