Notes
The original recipe as listed calls for the oven to be set to 350 F, but I found the rice would not finish cooking within an hour at that temperature. I was more successful by increasing the temperature to 375.
The foil cover must be very, very tight over the dish to trap the steam from the liquids to cook the rice.
