A nice side dish (5/10)

Don't interpret the score as being bad--it only reflects the simplicity of the recipe and the need to use it as a side dish. Eaten alone it is just a nice rice dish--good, but still rice. This recipe is not overly complicated though and I enjoy it a lot. It is makes a nice side dish, especially when eating grilled salmon (fillets or steaks) or chicken. When used in conjunction with the right foods this side dish really excells. If you are looking for a recipe with a bit more flavor and can be eaten as a side dish or a stand alone meal look up Tammy's Chicken Friend Rice recipe. Now THAT is a killer rice dish!
