For an extra layer of flavor, consider sautéing some sliced mushrooms and onions in butter before adding them to the baking dish.
Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices. A sprinkle of dried thyme or rosemary would be a delicious addition.

To prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the dish, you can lightly grease the baking dish before adding the ingredients.

    I added some frozen peas and carrots to the dish for extra nutrition, and it turned out great. Thanks for the easy recipe!

  • Tyler Johnston

    My rice was a little undercooked after 45 minutes, so I baked it for another 15 minutes, and it was perfect. Just keep an eye on it!
