Fluffy Cilantro Lime Rice

Steps

  1. Rinse the rice in a fine-mesh strainer under cold water until the water runs mostly clear. Drain well.
  2. Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the rice and stir until the grains smell lightly toasty.
  3. Add the water and salt and bring to a boil over high heat.
  4. Turn the heat to low, cover tightly and simmer without lifting the lid.
  5. Turn off the heat and let the rice rest, covered.
  6. Grate the lime zest right into the pot, then add the lime juice and cilantro.
  7. Fluff and toss everything together with a fork. Taste and add more salt or lime if you like.
