  1. This was excellent! I halved the dill because hubby doesn't like it, and halved the seasoned salt because bouillon is salty. I think I may cut down on the seasoned salt more next time, or use a "seasoned salt recipe" without the salt. Also, I didn't think the almonds added flavor to the mix, so I think I will leave them out next time. The texture they brought was nice, though. Oh, I also subbed lemon pepper for the peel and the black pepper as one reviewer suggested.
     
  2. This is a very tasty alternative to those salty box/envelope mixes!! I didn't mix in boullion, though. I add Better than Boullion paste to the water when cooking the rice. I also cut the amount of seasoning salt in half the first time I made it ......just to be sure. You can always add more but you can't take it out if you find it too salty for your taste!! I was happy with the lower amount of salt, especially since the chicken base has salt in it too. I also left out the dill. Just wasn't sure I'd like it in the rice. Thanks for the recipe!
     
  3. I'm not giving this a star rating as I have not tried this recipe. The copy of this recipe I have I got from Taste Of Home Quick Cooking magazine. My copy calls for 1 tsp lemon pepper and no lemon peel or black pepper. This recipe says this yields 10 batches. 4-6 servings per batch. Thanks for posting what sounds like a good recipe!
