Instructions
Bring rice, water and 1 teaspoon salt to a boil in a 1.5-2 qt. heavy saucepan, then reduce heat to low and cover pan with a tight fitting lid. Cook 20 mins. (Or cook your rice according to the package instructions - I always use Jasmine!) While rice is cooking, preheat the oven to 375 and chop the cilantro, garlic, scallion, onion, jalapeno. When rice is done, mix the rice w/ a 1/2 teaspoon of salt, the lime juice and all items chopped above. Spread the rice out on a cookie sheet and sprinkle w/ olive oil. Bake until a little crispy - approx 10-15 mins. Enjoy! |
