Finishing option
In conventional oven:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Rub a 9x13 inch casserole dish with a little olive oil. Lightly scoop the rice mixture into the casserole dish, lightly mounding it instead of mashing it down.
Bake until golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Drizzle with a little more olive oil and sprinkle with remaining chopped parsley. Serve.
In Air Fryer Oven:
Preheat air fryer oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Rub a 8"x 8" inch casserole dish with a little olive oil. Lightly scoop the rice mixture into the casserole dish, lightly mounding it instead of mashing it down.
Bake until golden brown, 15 minutes. Drizzle with a little more olive oil and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve.
