Cilantro lime rice



I started making this because my husband loves the rice at chipotle... I've tweaked it a few times & finally got it how he likes it.

Ingredients:
Zest of one lime
Juice of 1/2 lime
1 1/2 cups low sodium chicken stock (I use homemade)
Pinch of salt
1 cup rice
1-2 TBSP cilantro leaves

In a sauce pot combine juice of only one lime, chicken stock, salt, and rice. Heat on medium until it begins to bubble. Cover with a slight crack for steam and reduce heat to medium low to maintain slow bubble. Cook for ten minutes or until liquids are gone. Remove from heat and cover completely. Let sit five minutes. Mix in zest of one lime, juice of half lime, and cilantro (we love cilantro so we do about 2 TBSP).
