Lemon Rice Pilaf image

The lemon flavor is quite pronounced, we like it as it is, but if you are uncertain use less than what is written. 2 Tbsp. lemon rind equals around 2 lemons-depending on the size of your lemon.

This recipe was a bit too tangy for my taste, but I think I might have added too much lemon juice. I'll definitely try it again with less lemon next time.
