A surprisingly good dish, incredibly flavorful! Be aware that the 12 minute cook time will only work if you are using instant brown rice. I used whole grain brown rice, and started it boiling in the chicken broth an hour early. When I had 20 minutes left for the rice, I combined all the other ingredients as mentioned and added them to the rice for the last 10 minutes.
