Rice Pilaf with Raisins and Veggies

Rice Pilaf with Raisins and Veggies

Surprisingly easy and extremely flavorful. The curry powder does not add an actual curry taste, just a nice rich flavor, so give it a try even if you aren't a curry fan.

Step 1
Bring chicken broth to boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat; continue simmering while preparing remaining ingredients.
