Notes
The Creole/Cajun seasoning is very salty, so make sure that you are using low-sodium chicken broth and tasting the rice before adding any kind of salt to it.Make sure to cook rice to al dente and don’t overcook it. Overcooking can lead to mushy rice.Store refrigerated in an airtight container for up to one week.
