Cilantro Lime Rice

2 C. uncooked white long grain rice

2 Tbl. butter

2 Tbl. finely chopped white onion

1 bunch finely chopped cilantro

Juice from 1 - 2 limes

_________________________________________________________

Heat butter on medium low temperature in medium sized saucepan.

Add onions and garlic, cook until onions are translucent and soft.

Add uncooked rice and stir until it is well coated by the butter, add the water with a little salt, and bring to a boil.

Let water boil until it's reduced and barely covers the rice. cover with a lid, reduce the heat and simmer for about 20 - 25 min or until done.

Mix the cooked rice with the cilantro and lime juice. Add additional salt, if needed.
