I made this tonight as a practice run for Christmas dinner. I'm glad I did. This recipe simply didn't work well. Although I liked the flavor the wine added, I didn't care for the butter. It was too overwhelming. Also, my rice never fully cooked and the last step took more like 20 minutes. I rarely make rice anymore, but if I do, I might just add wine to the water.

I'm sorry, but we really didn't like this much at all. I don't know why, but it just had a flavour that wasn't appealing to us. I really thought it would be something we would all love, based on the ingredients.

I took the easy way out and made it in my rice cooker. It worked great. I even used dehydrated onions. Normally I'm not such a slacker. Didn't wash the rice, either. Used 1/2 cup wine, 1.5 cups water, some chicken stock concentrate, a couple tbs of the onions, 2 tbs of butter and hit start. Told my kids it was "Butter rice" and they ate every bite.

This receipe is very good! Excellent flavor to the rice - a very nice change from the routine. I served with Bourbon Chicken (#45809) and peas for a good, quick dinner.

Really enjoyed this. It was tasty, and just different enough to make it a good side for a "special" dinner. Served it with a roast chicken breast, #77201 squash casserole, and some baked roma tomato halves.

This was a great change from regular rice. Loved it. Will definitely make it again. I had to use medium grain rice since I discovered (too late) that I was all out of long grain. It came out very much like a risotto but without all the work. Next time I may try adding some Parmesan cheese & see how it tastes. Thanks for a great recipe Mandy.

We love rice and this recipe is no exception. I love the flavor of the wine in this. It really jazzes up plain old rice. Thank you for sharing this delicious rice recipe.

This was yummy! I made the recipe as written, and it turned out wonderfully. It's a nice change of pace from plain rice, nice enough for company but not so complicated that it wouldn't work for a weeknight meal at home. The chicken stock and wine gave it a nice flavor. Thanks for sharing, Mandy!

I thought it was a little bit heavy on the butter, so I cut it down to 1/2 stick of margarine, and it was good for me. I loved the wine (I used Riesling) addition, and will use this recipe often! Thank you for sharing it with us Mandy! Made for Zaar Stars 12/08 Linda

Very tasty and very easy to make. A great rice dish to serve as a side-dish, or you could so easily make a few additions and make this a one-dish meal. I frequently add wine to dishes but had never thought to add it to rice: delicious! My only addition here was 4 cloves of minced garlic in step one. Thanks for sharing this recipe, **Mandy**. I have lots of 'Women's Weekly' cookbooks, but this one had escaped my attention. Made for All New Zaar Cookbooks Tag.

I really liked this dish. It has a mild flavor that goes well with dishes you just want a little more than white rice with.

This was very bland to me. My BH enjoyed it however. We had it with BBQ chicken & to me it was nothing more than a side. I would have prefered mashed potatoes. I love to experiment, and since my BH liked it, I may try this again with some spices to kick it up.

I have a confession: Other than sushi rice and pork fried rice, I really don't care much for rice. I find it really boring--until now! This is, hands down, the BEST recipe for rice I have ever seen! My taste buds are dizzy from the wine, butter, wine combination. I even did the 'Happy Dance' in my kitchen! I used a wonderful Pinot Grigio and of course, I had a glass while making it. I could truly eat this all by itself as a main course. This WILL be making frequent appearances in my kitchen. THANK YOU for posting!

What a rockstar recipe this is! I used to make those microwave pouches of rice that took 15 minutes and always boiled over- NO MORE! This came together in 20 minutes (and I dawdled a bit) and was incredibly delicious. I thought I had butter, but had to use "I can't believe it's not butter" instead, and only had 1 can of chicken broth (just a bit less than 2 cups) so I subbed in a bit of water to make up the difference. Served it with salmon and veggies and it was a hit. Will be making over and over and over again. Thanks!

This is so good. The buttery, creamy rice is wonderful. It was enjoyed by all of us at the table and will be made often. There is not a single thing I would change. Thanks for sharing your recipe. This was made for ZWT4.

So yummy. The only white rice I had in the house was a blend that had a bit of wild rice running through it and that worked really nicely. I used low fat margarine and that didn't even make anything go wrong and brought the fat content down a lot. I tasted it right before serving and it was so lovely with a deep rich flavor. Then I decided to throw in a handful of grated fresh Parmesan and that was a great addition. Made for the Family Picks portion of ZWT4.

This is lovely rice. I only used 2 tablespoons of butter and it was still great. Simple and delicious. Thanks for posting!
