This is a great side dish for a variety of meats. Toast the almonds to add another dimension of flavor. Especially good with Peachy Pork Chops. Could easily be made vegetarian by using vegetable broth.

I'm not a big fan of raisins, but I really enjoyed this dish. The almonds added a nice crunch and the rice was cooked perfectly. I would definitely make this again, even with the raisins.

This was a delicious and easy recipe. I used brown rice instead of white rice and it turned out great. I also added a bit of cinnamon and nutmeg to the rice for extra flavor.
