Update Note: Thanks to Tinkerbell and Cjay For Your Suggestions About the Brown Rice Cooking Time. I Made This Recipe Using "success" Instant, Pre-Cooked Brown Rice According With the Package Directions For Microwave Cooking This Time, and This Dish Was Done Faster and Easier Than With the Regular Brown Rice Taking Longer to Absorb the Liquid. I Also Added 1 Chopped Garlic Clove to Add Flavor and It Was Very Good.
