Add the rice into a mixing bowl and fill it up with water. The water should be about an inch above the rice. Using a spoon, give it a few stirs until the water is cloudy.
Pour the rice into a mesh strainer and then rinse with water.
Add the rinsed rice into the rice cooker insert with the chicken broth, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and olive oil. Give it a couple of stirs.
Close the lid and set the rice cooker to the brown rice setting. Cooking time is between 1 1/2 - 2 hours.
When the rice is done the rice cooker will beep. Turn the rice cooker off and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Fluff the rice with a fork and then use as needed.
