Rice with Coca Cola is a delicious and easy side dish. It’s perfect to serve with beef, pork or chicken.
To make Rice with Coca-Cola you will need
Long Grain White Rice: Be sure to wash the rice well to remove some of the starch, this allow the rice to be fluffy. If you’d like to use brown rice for this recipe, increase liquid by ½ cup and cook for about 40 minutes, following the same cooking instructions.
Coca Cola: Use regular coke, diet coke doesn’t give this rice the sweetness that I like.
Oil: I like to use canola or vegetable oil for this recipe rice, but butter also works well.
Chicken Bouillon: Granules or cubes, this adds flavor to the rice. If you prefer substitute with vegetables bouillon.
Water: Or use chicken broth, if you want to omit the chicken bouillon.
Scallions: Add more flavor and texture to the rice.
