The following ingredients have 6 Servings
- 1 tablespoon olive or canola oil
- 1 cup long-grain white rice or basmati rice
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 2 limes (zested and juiced)
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 3 tablespoons fresh minced cilantro
Instruction
- Heat oil in a 3-quart saucepan or deep skillet. Stir in the rice and the juice of 1 lime. Cook, stirring constantly, for about 2 minutes. Rice should turn a bright white.
- Stir in garlic and lime zest and cook for another minute.
- Stir in chicken broth and remaining lime juice and bring to a boil.
