Cilantro Lime Rice recipe
This recipe for Cilantro Lime Rice is quick, easy and delicious and tastes just like the rice at Chipotle restaurants. I up the flavor by adding minced garlic to the rice while it’s cooking. Cilantro Lime Rice with garlic is a great accompaniment to chicken or steak fajitas. You can cut the preparation time in half if you use Minute Rice to make your Cilantro Lime Rice!
