Rice with pine nuts

You’d expect a good meal in half an hour, yes. But one that looks impressive as well?
This recipe for Chicken Roulades will do the trick, satisfying your speed need as well as being attractive enough for guests. If you’re comfortable in the kitchen, this should be no problem.
A good shortcut: Microwave the spinach so it’s ready to go when you assemble the chicken. Keep a box in the freezer, and you’ll be sure to impress any unexpected guests who happen to drop in at dinner time.
Serve this with an easy rice dish.
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add pine nuts and cook, stirring, until golden, about 3 minutes. Remove nuts and set aside.
Add water to pan and bring to boil. Add rice, reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, until done, about 15 minutes.
