Classic Pilaf Rice

Pilaf is one of the all time classic rice dishes going back all the way to the first century Persians. By combining the very finest extra long grain rice with a subtle chicken and butter flavor, special herbs and spices and delicately toasted wheat pasta, known as orzo, Carolina has brought the dish up-to-date, making it simple to prepare for everyday meals.

Cooking Directions - On the Stove

Bring 1-1/2 cups of water and 1 tablespoon margarine to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in rice mix, cover, reduce heat and simmer for 25 minutes. Fluff lightly with fork and serve.

Cooking Directions - In the Microwave

In a 1-1/2 quart microwave safe dish, combine 1-1/2 cups hot water, 1 tablespoon margarine, and rice mix. Cover and microwave on HIGH for 3 minutes. Reduce setting to 50% power and microwave for 22 minutes. Fluff lightly with fork and serve. If your microwave does not have variable power settings, follow manufacturers directions.
