Coconut Cilantro Lime Rice
Ingredients
1 cup jasmine rice
3/4 cup coconut milk
1 cup water or chicken stock
1 lime, zested
1 tsp. fresh lime juice
4 tsp. minced fresh cilantro
salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Rinse rice under cold water until water runs clear. This gets rid of some starch from the rice so the rice is not too sticky.
Combine the rice, coconut milk, water, and pinch of salt in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook partially covered on medium/low heat until liquid is absorbed, about 12-15 minutes.
Remove the pan from the heat. Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in the lime zest, lime juice, and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper as needed.
Serve immediately.
