For an enhanced flavor profile, consider using chicken broth instead of water and bouillon cube. Toasting the almonds beforehand intensifies their nutty flavor and adds a delightful crunch to the dish. Black rice is naturally gluten-free and packed with antioxidants, making it a healthy and delicious addition to your meals. Feel free to experiment with other nuts, such as pecans or walnuts, for a unique twist.
