This also makes a terrific recipe for other small grains like quinoa or amaranth. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time so grains are tender but not mushy. Use this tasty pilaf as a bed for seared salmon or scallops.

1 cup millet
6 cups water
2 tablespoons low-sodium vegetable or chicken broth
1 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped parsley
