Rice Pilaf with Pecans and Scallions

I saw this recipe on the Food Network show 5 Ingredient Fix with Claire Robinson. It was on a tv at the gym, and it looked so good I went home and looked up the recipe (and only having 5 ingredients is a plus!). I served it with the balsamic chicken I recently posted, but it would be good with just about any meat dish! It has a great flavor because you cook it in chicken broth instead of water, and the pecans add a nice crunch!

This looks like a yummy pilaf. I just like a little crunch (to a pilaf). Joni
