Bring 5 c. chicken broth to a simmer in saucepan over medium heat. Maintain at low simmer until ready to use.
In large Dutch oven, melt 1 stick butter. Add chopped onion mix, minced garlic and rice dressing mix. Mix well and cook until well browned, 12-15 minutes, stirring often.
Season with salt, red/black pepper and garlic powder. Set aside and keep warm.
In another Dutch oven, melt 2 T. butter. Add rice, cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute or until fragrant.
Stir in wine, stirring often, until nearly dry.
Add 1 c. hot broth, stirring constantly, until liquid is absorbed. Repeat with remaining broth, 1 cup at a time, until liquid is absorbed, about 25 minutes. Remove from heat.
Stir in rice dressing mixture, creole seasoning, green onions and parsley. Mix well. Add remaining butter and ¼ c. remaining broth. Taste for seasoning.
Serve.
Notes
*****Leftovers are great for stuffing mushrooms or bell peppers.
