Coconut Cilantro Lime Rice

About This Recipe

Coconut Cilantro Lime Rice takes your average cilantro lime rice up a notch by cooking the rice in coconut milk to create sweet and savory side dish perfect for tacos, curry, or just about any protein or veggie.

Ingredients

• 1 cup white jasmine rice
• 2 cups full fat coconut milk
• 3 tablespoons lime juice
• 1/2 cup packed cilantro, roughly chopped
• salt, to taste

Instructions

1. Rinse rice through running water a few times. I used a nut milk bag.
2. Combine rice, coconut milk, and salt in a saucepan. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Remove the lid and reduce heat to medium-low, and let simmer for 15-20 minutes or until desired doneness. 15 minutes rice will be more al dente and creamier, 20 minuets the rice will be softer and the liquid fully absorbed.
3. Stir in lime juice and cilantro. Enjoy!
4. Combine rice, coconut milk, and salt in Instant Pot. Close lid and make sure it is locked and valve is set to sealed. Set to manual mode for 5 minutes. Let pressure release naturally for 10 minutes and then do a quick release for remaining pressure.
