Cafe Rio Rice

1 tsp butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp lime zest
2 T lime juice
2 tsp white sugar
3 T chopped cilantro
1 can diced chilies
20 minunte rice (we love Jasmine rice) - as directed
chicken broth - as directed

Combine broth, garlic, butter, lime zest, cilantro, chilies and bring to boil.
Add rice - cook as directed.
Combine lime juice and sugar and add to cooked rice.

I can't take full credit for this recipe but we've tried many Cafe Rio recipes and this is the closest thus far. We modified the original recipe to what we think taste like Cafe Rio. Yum yum!

  1. Mmmmm! I think I'll have to surprise Christian by making this!

    I have to admit--I rarely cook, so I'm not sure I'll be much of a contributor. But it sounds fun!
