10-Minute Instant Pot Cilantro Lime Rice
Making rice in the Instant Pot is basically foolproof - it is so easy to do and results in the perfect rice every time. Toss it with freshly squeezed lime juice and cilantro for a flavorful side dish that pairs with many dishes, from tacos to burrito bowls to curry.
Ingredients
- 2 cups jasmine or basmati rice (or white long grain)
- 2 cups vegetable broth (or water)
- 1 Tablespoon butter (optional)
- 1 lime (zested and juiced (~2 TBSP))
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt (or to taste)
- 1/2 cup cilantro (chopped)
Instructions
- 1
Rinse the rice in a fine-mesh strainer until the water runs clear. Optional but recommended.
- 2
In the bowl of your Instant Pot, add the rinsed rice and combine with water, butter, and salt. Cover and set to sealing.
- 3
Cook on high pressure for 3 minutes for perfectly al dente rice (or 4 minutes for more well-done rice). Allow it to naturally release for 10 minutes, then release any remaining pressure. Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in lime juice, lime zest, and cilantro.
