Instant Pot Cilantro Lime Rice - This super easy rice tastes like Chipotle's, is only 3 ingredients and is ready in 12 minutes - the perfect healthy side dish! | Foodfaithfitness.com | @FoodFaithFit

Ingredients

  • 1 cup uncooked white rice
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup roughly chopped cilantro lightly-packed
  • 3 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice typically from 2 large limes

Instructions

  • Place the uncooked rice in a mesh strainer and run under cold water until the water runs clear, then lightly shake the rice in the strainer to remove any excess water. Place into the liner of the Instant Pot and add a pinch of salt.
  • Add in the water and stir to combine. Cover the Instant Pot, make sure the lid is locked and the vent is set to "Sealed." Press the "Rice" button and, if necessary, choose your rice type. Press "Start."
  • Once cooked, allow the Instant Pot to steam release naturally. Open the lid only when the vent button on the lid drops down.
  • Fluff the rice with a fork. Gently stir in the cilantro and fresh lime juice, and season to taste with salt.
  • Serve warm.
