Ingredients

2 c white rice (i used jasmine, but i think long grain would be just as good)
1-2 Tbsp olive oil
4 c hot water (tap, as hot as you can get it)
1 Tbsp chili powder
1 Tbsp garlic powder
1 Tbsp celery salt
1 Tbsp dried cilantro
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp cumin

Steps:

1. Coat bottom of large skillet well with oil and heat until oil ripples. Add rice and saute until rice changes color and begins to brown, stirring constantly.
2. Add water and spices. Stir. When rice begins to boil, stir again, then reduce heat to simmer, cover, and allow to cook for 20 minutes(or time called for on your rice package). Do not lift lid!
3. When rice is done, take a fork and fluff rice. Allow to sit, uncovered, for a couple minutes before serving.
