Servings: 4 Servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups Long-Grain White Rice
- 2 ¼ cups Water
- 2 Bay Leaves
- 1 tablespoon Avocado or Olive Oil
- 3-4 tablespoons Lime Juice or to preference
- 1 cup Cilantro finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt see note
- ¼ teaspoon Black Pepper
Instructions
- Rinse the rice thoroughly in a fine mesh sieve to remove excess starch.
- Add the rinsed and drained long-grain white rice, bay leaves, and water to the rice cooker. Secure the lid and cook using the white rice setting.
- Once the rice is done, remove the bay leaves and fluff the rice with a fork. Stir in the avocado oil, 2 tablespoon lime juice, cilantro, half of the Kosher salt, and black pepper.
- I suggest starting with half the amount of lime juice and salt, then tasting and adjusting to your preference.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Important Note: Not all salts are made equal and cannot be substituted 1:1. If you are substituting table salt for kosher salt, you will need to cut the amount called for in the recipe by at least half.
