Recipe View Discard the bay leaves before serving. Fluff the rice gently with a fork and transfer it to a serving bowl. Serve hot and enjoy!

For an even more intense flavor, try toasting the spices in the butter for a minute before adding the rice.
If you don't have chicken broth, vegetable broth or even water can be used as a substitute, though the flavor will be slightly different.
Feel free to experiment with other spices such as a pinch of saffron for a richer color and flavor.
