Recipe Tips

To make sure the rice cooks evenly, stir the mixture halfway through the baking time. You can also add a layer of cheese on top of the rice before baking for added flavor and texture. If you like your rice to be more tender, add an additional 1/4 cup of chicken broth or water to the mixture before baking. This recipe can also be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven or microwave for a quick and easy meal.
