Ingredients

  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • ¾ cup water
  • 1 cup regular white rice
  • ¼ salt
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon peel
  • ½ teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  • Prepare your rice per the package, substituting 1 cup of water for chicken broth. I used my rice cooker - if you use this method, remove the rice from the rice cooker immediately upon finish to prevent burning.
  • In a bowl, combine the cooked rice, salt, parsley, lemon peel and lemon juice well. Serve.
