Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low and add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter, stirring until melted.
Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Add the minute rice to the saucepan and stir to evenly coat the rice with the seasoned water mixture.
