After about 30 seconds, add chicken bouillon and half a teaspoon of garlic salt.

Once it simmers, taste the liquid and adjust seasoning if needed.

Tips
Make sure not to toast your rice; you just want it to get nice and mixed with the butter.
The rice is done cooking with butter when it no longer sticks to each other.
Taste the liquid once it simmers and adjust seasonings if needed.
