Royal Chicken & Herb Basmati Rice - Ready to Heat Basmati Rice - (4 Pack) 8.5 oz Microwaveable Pouch

I didn’t just heat up a pouch of rice. I unlocked a culinary time bomb detonated with molten white queso, jalapeño fire, and the royalty of basmati itself. The microwave trembled. My taste buds surrendered. Each pouch—8.5 oz of unapologetic flavor warfare—unleashed a royal decree: Thou shall never eat plain rice again.The white queso is creamy, decadent, a velvet hammer of indulgence. The jalapeños? Not just a kick—a roundhouse to the face, courtesy of a spice god with no mercy. I paired it with grilled chicken once. The chicken cried tears of inadequacy. I tried it solo, and the rice flexed its independence like it was born to be the main event.Perfect texture. Zero prep stress. Pure microwave mayhem. Four pouches? Not enough. I need a pallet. Maybe a bunker full.VERDICT:This isn't a side dish. This is a main character moment.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — Would eat during a thunderstorm, a breakup, or while planning world domination.

If you like your rice glutinous, this rice is for you. If you prefer grains to be separate and not stick together much, you won't be happy. In any case, it's high quality and good-tasting. This is by far my favorite brand of microwave rice, blows Uncle Ben's out of the water (yes I know they changed the name, but I'll call it Uncle Ben's until the day I die).

Bland for my taste but with salt and pepper, tastes good

Basmati rice is much more interesting than short grain white rice and having microwaveable pouches in the pantry means my husband won’t run out and eat fast food for lunch! We have tried many different brands of microwave rice, this is by far our favorite. We throw leftover chicken, chili, or even soup on top for quick meals. We don’t find it sticky at all, the grains stay separate.

Not worth buying. The texture is mushy and the flavor is strong relying too much on cumin. Save your money and buy something else.

Very excellent rice! Very fresh and easy to prepare. Wonderful flavor.

So fresh even though it is a package product. Loving the taste.
