Cilantro Lime Rice (Rice Cooker)
Adapted from an internet recipe.
I am always looking for ways to change up rice. This is a great side dish with chicken or fish. I made this on 5 Dec 2017, and it is perfect, very well liked by the family as well. I use a simple Cook and Warm rice cooker for this.

Cuisine Tex-Mex
- 1 cup dry rice, white or brown is fine
- 2 cups water
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 juice from 1 lime, about 2 tablespoons
- ½ teaspoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ bunch cilantro, finely chopped
Add the garlic, rinsed rice, and water to your rice cooker, then set to Cook. After it has finished cooking and switches to Warm, fluff with a fork.
In a small bowl, mix together the lime juice, oil, and salt. Drizzle over the fluffed rice and add the cilantro, mix together until the cilantro and dressing is evenly distributed.
Serve as a side with chicken or fish, a topping in a taco, in a burrito, many options.
