      Traditional Method:

      1. Rinse Rice:  Place rice in a fine-mesh sieve and rinse under cool water until the water runs clear.
      2. Cook Rice:  Add rice, broth, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika salt, and tomatoes to a pot and stir to combine.  Bring to a simmer and cover with a lid. Cook on low heat for 15-20 minutes until the rice has absorbed all the liquid.
      3. Serve:  Remove the rice from the heat and fluff with a fork before serving.

      Oven Method:

      1. Rinse Rice:  Preheat oven to 350°.  Place rice in a fine-mesh sieve and rinse under cool water until the water runs clear.
      2. Cook Rice:  Add rice, broth, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika salt, and tomatoes to a 9 x 13 pan or a 4-quart dutch oven. Stir well to combine and cover with a lid or tin foil.  Bake for 25-35 minutes until the rice has absorbed all the liquid and is tender.
      3. Serve:  Remove the rice from the oven and fluff with a fork before serving.

      Pressure Cooker Method:

      Note for this method: If using this method, reduce the amount of broth to 1 cup to every 1.5 cups of rice.  So, if cooking a single batch, use 1 cup broth and 1.5 cups rice.  If cooking a double batch, use 2 cups of broth and 3 cups of rice.

      1. Rinse Rice:  Place rice in a fine-mesh sieve and rinse under cool water until the water runs clear.
      2. Cook Rice:  Add rice, broth (see the note above), onion powder, garlic powder, paprika salt, and tomatoes to a pressure cooker and bring to high pressure over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and cook at high pressure for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let the pressure release using the slow release method.
      3. Serve:  Remove the lid and fluff with a fork before serving.
