Chipotle Copycat Rice by Steph

We use this recipe on our "chipotle Burrito bar night" I copied this recipe from food.com (Is that legal?)

1 teaspoon
vegetable oil or 1 teaspoon butter
2 teaspoons
fresh cilantro
2⁄3; cup white basmati rice
1 cup water
½ teaspoon salt
1 lime
Directions:

1 - In a 2-quart heavy saucepan, heat oil or butter over low heat,
stirring occasionally until melted.

2 - Add rice and lime juice, stir for 1 minute.

3 - Add water and salt, bring to a full rolling boil.(Some people
have had success with 1 cup of water, but when I've made it with 2 it worked for
me).

4 - At boiling, cover, turn down to simmer over low heat until rice
is tender and the water is absorbed, about 25 minutes.

5 - Add in the cilantro and fluff rice with a
fork.Read more: http://www.food.com/recipe/chipotle-copycat-lime-rice-recipe-147335#ixzz1pa5XAyx2
