I just made this and it was awesome!! I never have any luck when making rice unless it is Minute Rice. The browning of the rice did intimidate me a bit but it wasn't too bad! I used a whole onion and a whole bell pepper (I didn't even think to measure it out) and it turned out perfect and super colorful!
