Cilantro Lime Rice

Ingredients

• •1 1/2 cups long-grain white rice
• •3 cups water
• •1 tbsp vegetable oil
• •1 tsp salt
• •3 tbsp fresh lime juice
• •1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Directions

1. 1Rinse the rice until the water runs mostly clear, then drain thoroughly.
2. 2Heat vegetable oil in a saucepan and stir the rice for 1 minute.
3. 3Add water and salt and bring to a boil.
4. 4Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook for 15 minutes.
5. 5Rest the rice covered for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
6. 6Fold in lime juice and cilantro just before serving.

💡 Add lime and cilantro after the rice has rested; early acid can toughen the grains and dull the herbs.
