For a richer flavor, try using chicken or vegetable broth instead of water when cooking the rice. Add a pinch of cumin or chili powder for a subtle kick. This dish is also delicious with brown rice, but you'll need to adjust the cooking time accordingly. To make it a complete meal, consider adding grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Nov 9, 2022I'm not a fan of instant rice, so I used long-grain rice and simmered it for longer. It turned out great!
