  • Stir in 1/2 cup of chicken broth and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat and continue stirring.
  • When
    most of the liquid is absorbed, add another 1/2 cup of broth.
  • Keep stirring.
  • Continue this process until all of the broth is used up - this takes
    approximately 20 minutes.
  • When all liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, remove from heat.
  • If the rice isn't
    quite tender when the broth is used up you can add 1/2 cup of water.
  • Stir in parmesan cheese and wine and garnish with parsley if desired.
