Easy Lemon Basmati Rice with Green Onions and Parsley

Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear; drain well.

Coat a heavy saucepan with olive oil no-stick cooking spray; set it-over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the rice; cook and stir for 1 minute. Add the broth, lemon rind and lemon juice. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low; cover and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until all the broth has been absorbed.

Fluff the rice with a fork. Stir in the parsley and green onions; add salt to taste.
