Cilantro-Lime Rice

This recipe is the perfect side dish for Sweet Pork, or any Mexican themed meal. I don't have a picture, but one of these days I'll remember to take one and add it to this post :)

Ingredients

1 cup uncooked rice

1 tsp. butter or margarine

2 cloves garlic, minced

zest from 1 lime

1 (15 oz) can chicken broth

water - add to chicken broth to make 2 cups

2 Tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice

2 tsp. granulated sugar

3 Tbsp fresh chopped cilantro

Directions

In a saucepan, combine rice, butter, garlic, lime zest, chicken broth and water. Bring to a boil. Cover and 15-20 minutes until rice is tender. Remove from heat. In a small bowl, combine lime juice, sugar and cilantro. Pour over hot cooked rice and, using a fork, fluff rice until cilantro is mixed in.
