    I thought this was a very goog recipe,I used 1 bunch of red swiss chard & I also chopped the steams very finely ,my husband said it could have used another bunch w/ the rice ratio and alittle more salt. I did add a few drops of velentina hot sauce which added the right amount heat. I've been looking for another way to add a different green vegtable to my menu, and this was perfect. Whats not to love about bacon, garlic , rice & greens in one pot? I will make this again.

    This is seriously delicious. I made this for a potluck, but when I tasted it I just wanted to keep eating the whole potful. Chard was not my go-to vegetable, but now I buy it more often.

    Fantastic! So full of flavor - my husband loved it so much, he asked me to make it again the next day. Thank you Rachel!

    Love this rice dish. First I don't eat pork so I used turkey bacon. I cooked the turkey bacon in evoo, then added grated garlic, red chard and seasonings and cooked til the chard was wilted, then i added the rice to coat with all that goodness, through it all in my rice cooker and added only 1 cup of stock. OMG my husband almost didn't leave me any, next time i'll make double the recipe. Thanks Rachael

    I've made this twice and both times it turned out great! We love the taste and it was a good side dish for broiled steak as well as a roasted chicken. I, too, cut back to one tablespoon of olive oil and used low sodium chicken broth because of the salty bacon. I'm glad to have another "greens" dish in my recipe box that the whole family will eat.

    I'm a little confused by the reviewing process. It seems that those reviews before mine are talking about something other than the rice, which I am reviewing. I thought the rice recipe was fabulous and will make it again with a couple of changes. I used bacon, which turned out to be a bit fat so I drained the bacon grease. Next time I will not use the olive oil to fry the bacon. To maintain the flavor of the olive oil, I might drizzle a bit over before adding the rice. Also, I cut back on the smoked paprika having spoiled a couple of dishes using smoked paprika...I have since tossed that particular paprika which might have been bittersweet. I also think you could use as much chard as you have. I had a large bunch, used part of it but could have used it all.

    We made the chicken dish first(didn't like, but I think it was my fault-the unsweetened cocoa powder was overkill, see my review. I made this side dish the next day. It is so good! The garlic really brings out the flavor.Instead of grating the garlic, I just fine chopped it. At first, I was doubtful about not draining the grease from the cooked bacon, but I found that it really added to the flavor. I just discarded a small amount to cut down on the fat content. I had to simmerthe rice longer than the 16-18 minutes that Rachel recommended as the rice was still crunchy. I just added a little extra chicken stock and simmered for about 15 minutes longer. My only regret: that I didn't double up and make more! It is so good, that I will be making it for a Girl's Night potluck in a few weeks! I definitely recommend making this dish!

    This was very good. Next time I may try it with brown rice and collard greens. Thanks Rachael.
