I created this recipe together with my oven pepper steak.  Both dishes are prep and bake for a simple dinner that can be frozen and heated later.  This rice is also delicious with other Asian favorites as a side. You can even use the rice to make your own fried rice or stir fry! This is a recipe you’ll want to keep on hand.

You'll need: 8x8 Roasting Pan
