Parmesan Lemon Herb Brown Rice image

This is adapted from a photo copy from a book or magazine. It says "The Best Light Recipe" at the top. My notes were to increase the lemon and decrease the basil. So I offered that below. Please use fresh lemon and herbs. Using the oven method gives you a fluffy and chewy brown rice instead of wet and soupy or burnt and crunchy.

This recipe was so easy to make and it turned out delicious! I used brown rice instead of white rice and it was still really good. I also added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes and it gave the dish a nice tangy flavor.
