Cilantro Lime Rice

I love how easy this dish is to make! I also love how versatile it is! I usually serve it when I make Carnitas. It's good with just about any type of Mexican food or grilled meats.

Ingredients:

1 Tbs olive oil

1 cup Basmati rice

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp sugar

juice of 2 limes

2 cups water

1/4 cup freshly chopped cilantro

Directions:

Heat olive oil over med/high heat in a large, lidded, skillet. Add rice and brown for a few minutes. Just until it's lightly browned and aromatic. Reduce heat to low. Add salt, sugar, and lime juice. Pour in water, stir, cover, and cook for about 15 minutes or until rice is tender. When rice is ready, fluff with fork and stir in chopped cilantro.
