So simple, easy and fast to make! Although I didn't go the instant rice route, I made my rice in a standard rice cooker and just replaced the water with the chicken broth and let it cook the rice that way. Will definitely make this again! :)

I found this in the ToH mag a couple years ago and made it a couple times but for some reason forgot about it. It just crossed my mind and I HAVE to have some! It's so easy and the blend of flavors make this scrumptious. I'm adding the ingredients to my grocery list, can't wait to have it again!
