SOLO TERIYAKI CHICKEN PILAF
When this recipe was rewritten, and retitled by the editors of Taste of Home in one of their 2009 cookbooks, they went with a different Pilaf procedure. Cooking is A Creative Sport, so if yours is different than mine, by all means consider trying them both. And the inclusion of wine is certainly optional.

SOLO CHICKEN MUSHROOM PILAF
There is usually just enough flavorful liquid in the final dish to prompt me to eat this with a spoon. The natural flavoring of the mushrooms is similar to MSG and when paired with the sweetness of sauted onions, that was enough flavor for me. However Cooking is a Creative Sport, so feel free to add spices. I found that adding a quarter teaspoon of curry powder during step four made a very pleasant variation, and the kitchen smelled wonderful.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your pilaf taste its best.
- Rinse the rice before cooking. This will help to remove any starch and make the rice less sticky.
- Toast the rice before adding the liquid. This will help to give the rice a nutty flavor.
- Use a flavorful broth. Chicken broth, vegetable broth, or even water can be used, but a flavorful broth will add more depth of flavor to the pilaf.
- Add vegetables and herbs. Vegetables such as mushrooms, carrots, and peas are great additions to pilaf. Herbs such as rosemary, thyme, and oregano can also add flavor.
- Cook the pilaf until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed. This will usually take about 15-20 minutes.
- Let the pilaf rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the rice to absorb any remaining liquid and make it easier to serve.
