This was a great recipe! I used jasmine rice instead of white rice and it turned out great. I will definitely be making this again.

This dish was so easy to make and it turned out great! I used brown rice instead of white rice and it was still delicious. I also added some chopped carrots and celery to the mix and it gave it a nice crunch. I will definitely be making this again!
