Preparation

  1. While the onion is cooking (see chicken recipe), combine the rice and chicken broth, and bring to a boil in a heavy-bottomed pot. Cover and simmer, cooking for a total of 17 minutes.
  2. When the onion is browned, stir it into the cooking rice.
  3. Wash, trim and slice the scallions, and add to rice; continue cooking.
  4. Wash and trim tough stems from spinach, and cut coarsely. About 2 minutes before the rice is ready, stir in the spinach, and finish cooking. Season with salt.
