I am not a huge rice eater, I find it both boring and tasteless. That was not the case with this rice dish! I used what I had which was chicken rice mix and used half the chicken powder so the chicken flavor was not too overpowering. The raisins added a slight burst of sweetness and the cashews added a crunch which made me look forward to every bite!

cut open about 4 bags of boil in a bag uncle bens 10 minute rice and followed the recipe and my rice didn't come out mushy, it was actually quite tasty. I was heavy on the cinnamon, and used a butter substitute and it was a crowd pleaser!

I thought this dish was great! I've read most of the other reviews, and it seems that personalizing the recipe is always best. I used basmati rice, used almonds instead of cashews (picked up the wrong thing at the grocery store, and added the raisins to the rice before steaming (to plump them up. To bring out more flavor and add a nice crunch, I toasted the almonds before adding them to the dish. And for those that thought it was too bland, adding a little more salt helps bring out the sweet flavor. This recipe is a great way to "spice" up your everyday rice.
