All my favorite herbs in one healthy rice recipe, so why the average rating you ask? Adding tablespoon after tablespoon of herbs, was herb-overkill. In particular are the rosemary and thyme- I would def cut these in half next time. But what an enticing aroma this dish has!! Thanks for posting, will make it again!!
