If you have never tried Cafe Rio…you are missing out.
The Cilantro Lime Rice is SOOOOO good.
This is the closest I can get to the REAL deal.
1 C. Uncooked Mexican Rice
2 tsp. Butter
2 Cloves of garlic minced
2 TBSP Lime juice
1 (15oz.) Chicken Broth
1 C. Water
3 TBSP. Chopped Cilantro
Combine the water, broth,butter, garlic and 1 TBSP Lime juice.
Cook in a sauce pan or rice cooker for 15-20 minutes or until rice is tender. Fluff with a fork and add in remaining juice and the cilantro.
I like to pair this with my Marinated Chicken Kabob’s.

This is new to me! I must try this and share it with my friend! Thanks for the recipe!
I’ve had rice with lime before and loved it, but that cilantro sounds like a tasty idea.
This sounds like a great light fare…just what I need after diving into the frosting and doing a bunch of ‘frosting’ shots. You are great as usual Lark
Too funny. We had Crockpot Barbacoa with Cilantro rice for dinner tonight. My recipe is different though, I plan on posting it soon (there was no good lighting tonight). I might get a picture tomorrow with my leftovers 🙂
