Cilantro Lime Rice

Ingrédients

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 1/4 cups basmati rice
• 2 1/4 cups chicken broth
• 1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin
• zest and juice of 1 lime

Préparation

1. 1

   In a medium saucepan, over medium-high heat, add the butter and the dry basmati rice. Toast the rice, while stirring frequently to prevent it from burning, until it's lightly golden brown, very fragrant, and the butter has melted.

2. 2

   Add the chicken broth, chopped cilantro, salt, cumin, lime zest, and lime juice. Stir. Bring to a boil.

3. 3

   Once boiling, cover the pan with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for 20-25 minutes.

4. 4

   Once the rice is soft and all the liquid is absorbed, remove the lid, and fluff the rice with a fork. Serve immediately.
