Season and Serve:
Rice Absorption: If you anticipate leftovers, consider cooking the rice separately and adding it to individual servings. This prevents the rice from absorbing too much broth and becoming mushy when stored.
Variations: Feel free to add other vegetables such as peas, corn, or spinach for added flavor and nutrition.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If the rice has absorbed too much broth upon reheating, add a bit more chicken broth to reach the desired consistency.
