Lime Rice

from Joleen's kitchen

1 cup uncooked white rice (I use basmati)
1 t. butter or margarine
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 t. grated lime peel (zest)
1 can (15 oz.) chicken broth
¼ cup water
2 T. freshly squeezed lime juice
2 t. sugar
3 T. fresh chopped cilantro (I use less)



In a saucepan combine rice, butter or margarine, garlic, lime peel, chicken broth and water.  Bring to a boil.  Cover and cook 15-20 minutes until rice is tender. 

Remove from heat.  In a small bowl combine lime juice, sugar and cilantro.  Pour over hot cooked rice.
