  I am a former chef and have eaten in many Greek restaurants here in Toronto Canada, they do cook it in a chicken broth, some even cook the pasta shaped like rice, orzo in with it, I had a friend who ran a taverna style place on Danforth Av, one with the whole lamb rotating in the front window, and he said that was all they used, some will ad a bit of turmeric (poor mans saffron) for a heighten flavour. As for the basmati or Jasmine rice the one person said, I know Greek chefs and Uncle Bens is all they use, just add a cube or 2 depending on your amount making, a pinch of pepper, no salt the chix stock is enough, even a bay leaf for flavour.
