For a richer flavor, use chicken broth instead of water and chicken bouillon. Try adding toasted nuts or dried fruits for added texture and sweetness. This pilaf pairs well with roasted chicken, grilled fish, or vegetable skewers. Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices to create your own signature pilaf. For a vegetarian option, use vegetable bouillon granules.
