I'm a vegetarian, so I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. It was still very flavorful.

I'm allergic to onions, so I omitted them from the recipe. It was still delicious!

I didn't have any chicken broth on hand, so I used water instead. It still turned out great!

I was a bit skeptical about using chicken broth instead of water, but it really made a difference in the flavor of the rice.
