This was pretty good. I made this last night to go with our fish. My rice was a little sticky but nothing that stopped up from eating it. Thank you for sharing with us.

A good rice recipe. Not your typical rice pilaf you get in the restaurants but very good. I made it exactly as recipe states and rice was done to perfection. Flavor was good and it was colorful on the plate. My husband gave it a thumbs up!

I made this rice pilaf yesterday and everyone just loves it (even our dog) I accidentaly added more onions but it turned out pretty good. Now I am going to make it again for dinner because my husband begged me to. Thank you so much.

This was really tasty! I cooked twice as long as the recipe stated and still it was kind of liquidy for me but the taste was nice and I followed the recipe to the letter. Paired tonight with recipe #61982 and recipe #193909. Deelish!
