I made this lovely pilaf for dinner last evening. I made two versions, the first exactly as written and the second for my husband without any nuts. We both enjoyed the rice very much, it was quick and easy to make. Remember to watch your pecans, my first batch burned. I love the flavour of this pilaf . We served it with pork spareribs, it was delicious. Thanks for sharing.
