- Bring to a light simmer, then cover and cook for 25 to 30 minutes, until the rice has absorbed most of the liquid.
- When the rice is nearly cooked, place the broccoli florets on top of the rice and cover halfway, cooking for the remaining time until excess liquid has evaporated.
- Once the rice is cooked, stir in the broccoli and remove from the heat.
- Garnish with parsley and serve.
