Ready In
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
- Bring chicken broth to a boil in a saucepan.
- Pour rice mix into the prepared baking dish. Carefully pour boiling chicken broth over the rice. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake in preheated oven until rice is tender, about 1 hour.
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir almonds in hot butter until they start to color, 3 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle parsley over the almonds; continue to cook and stir until the almonds are lightly browned, another 3 to 5 minutes.
- Mix the baked rice, the almond mixture, cranberries, salt, and pepper in a large bowl; toss to serve.

Loved it! Worth the time and effort. I used all wild rice too. Will try it with the mixed next time. Great change from plain rice.

A rice cooker works best for me (including the keep warm setting), takes less time and is reliable cooked rice. Otherwise, an awesome side.
