We like to eat this rice when we are having a "tropical" meal. This recipe comes from "Burt Wolf's Menu Cookbook". I usually just put all the ingredients in my rice cooker and just add a little extra water but it can be cooked on the stove as described below.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 3/4 cups water
1 cup white rice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 garlic clove
2 teaspoons lime zest

Directions

1
Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Add the rest of the ingredients and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes. Remove garlic clove before serving.

I stirred in the lime zest just before serving the rice. This was good with chicken. I also subbed basmati rice for plain white rice. Bright and refreshing taste! Reviewed for ZWT 2009.

This rice was really nice! I made this in my rice cooker and I doubled the recipe, following the liquid:rice ratio for my rice cooker instead just to make sure it would work. I didn't use lime zest and substituted garlic powder for the fresh garlic since my garlic press was in the dishwasher at the time I served with beef chimichangas, homemade salsa and guacamole... yum! DH loved it too (but he put ketchup on it! ha ha, strange, I know!). Made for ZWT5.
