Cilantro Lime Rice



While working at the B&B, I learned to make Mexican Rice. Ever since, I've loved experimenting with rice. This is similar to Cafe Rio's Rice also! Hope ya enjoy!

Here's how ya do it--
  • 1 cup Uncooked Rice
  • 2 teaspoon Butter
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • 1 1/2 Tablespoon Fresh Lime Juice
  • 1 can (15 Oz. Can) Chicken Broth
  • 1 cup Water
  • 3 Tablespoons Fresh Chopped Cilantro
  • 3 Tablespoons of Green Chili Sauce or half a can of diced green chilis
Ok, first we are going to melt the butter in a medium sized pot. We are then going to stir in the garlic, and the green chilis/sauce, then we are going to stir in the rice. You just want to brown the rice to a golden brown color. Then stir in your lime juice, chicken broth, water and cilantro. Put a lid on your pot and cook for approximately 15-20 minutes or until rice is tender.
