WOW! What a super delicious recipe! LOVED this. I halved the recipe for just two of us. While on the ZWT, I'm trying to cook something different each night and avoid the leftovers that I usually welcome! We thoroughly enjoyed this oh-so-quick-to-prepare dish with Recipe #155699. We loved the blend of the basil, parsley and paprika in this. I used breezermom's yummy Recipe #328649 and did add some minced garlic. Certainly a rice dish I'll be making again and again post-ZWT 5. Thank you so much for sharing another super recipe, Sue L!

We really enjoyed this! It really is Buena. The flavors were wonderful. I have never combined basil and rice but it was an excellent combination. We enjoyed this with Recipe#370766, some red wine and a salad of lettuce and parsley dressed in olive oil and lemon. Delicioso!! Made for ZWT5 and will be made again - Thanks Sue L :)

I cut this recipe in half as there was only hubby and I. I kept all of the proportions the same. This was okay, but the basil taste was a little overpowering. It is very fragrant and moist, but if I were to make this again, I would cut the basil in half. I'm a Groovy GastroGnome travelling on the ZWT5... thanks for putting in this recipe for me to try!
