cilantro lime rice
2-1/4 c water
1-1/2 c brown rice
3 T butter
1-1/2 tsp salt
1/3 c minced fresh cilantro
2 T lime juice (about the juice of 1 lime)
Place in a pot with a tight- fitting lid, the rice, water, butter, and salt. Turn the heat on high, bring to a boil, put the lid on the pot, and reduce the heat to simmer, and simmer 30 minutes. Turn off the heat, and let the rice sit in the covered pot for 10-20 minutes or until the rest of the dinner is ready. Stir in the cilantro and lime juice, and serve. Makes 6 c cooked rice. This rice tastes like Qdoba’s or Chipotle’s cilantro lime rice.
