Description

Bright and zesty rice that pairs well with any Latin main dish!

Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 2 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, Divided
  • ½ cups Diced White Onion
  • ½ Tablespoons Minced Garlic
  • ⅛ teaspoons Red Pepper Flakes
  • 1 cup White Rice (long Grained Preferred)
  • 2 cups Low Sodium Chicken Stock Or Vegetable Stock
  • ¼ teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • ½ cups Chopped Cilantro
  • 2 Tablespoons Fresh Lime Juice
  • 1  Lime, Zested

Preparation

In a small pot that has a lid, heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Once melted, add white onions and cook for 2–3 minutes until softened. Add garlic and pepper flakes, and cook for an additional minute. Stir in rice and cook for 1 more minute.

Add chicken stock and kosher salt, and bring to a boil. Cover pot and reduce heat to low. Simmer until all liquid has evaporated and rice is tender, about 18–20 minutes. Once done, remove pot from stove and let sit, covered for 5 minutes.

Remove lid and add remaining butter, cilantro, lime juice and zest. Use a fork to fluff the rice grains. Enjoy!
