This is an excellent rice side dish made in your rice cooker. 1. Use beef broth in place of chicken broth. 2. Use mushroom broth in place of chicken stock, and add sautéed mushrooms. 3. Add cooked chopped chicken. 4. In place of orzo, use broken spaghetti in ½ to 1 inch lengths.

How To Make rice a roni (rice cooker)

  • 1
    Add the butter to the rice cooker pot and place on Cook. Melt the butter then add the orzo. Cook the orzo for a few minutes, stirring often, until starting to brown, it will smell like pop corn. (If you do not have orzo, just break up spaghetti into 1/2 inch pieces, works just as well.)

    Add the rinsed rice, broth, and seasonings. Stir together. Cover and let the rice cooker complete the cook cycle.
