When you’re looking for a sweet side dish, this should be your next go-to. You can use white or brown rice for this easy dinner side dish, saute it with onions and add in the orange juice and raisins. The orange flavor complements any main dish and the sweetness of the golden raisins is light and not overwhelming, creating a perfect blend of sweet and savory.

Yummy This rice is definitely on the sweet side, so if that's not your thing you might not like it, but I liked it. I forgot to buy raisins so I had to make it without them, and it was fine, but I'd like to try it again to see if the raisins add another dimension of flavor to the dish.
