Cilantro Lime Rice


1-2 tsp olive oil
1/4 sweet yellow onion, diced
1-2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 cup long grained rice (brown or white)
2 cups of water
1 tsp chicken bouillon granules
1 large handful of cilantro, chopped
Juice and zest of 1 lime

Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes, until soft and tender. Add the rice and garlic then cook, stirring constantly, for 1-2 minutes. Add the water and chicken bouillon granules, bring to a boil over high heat, cover and reduce the heat and simmer, until tender, about 20-25 minutes for white rice and 40-45 minutes for brown rice. Remove from heat and mix with the cilantro, lime juice and zest. Enjoy
