This recipe is from Ree Drummond / The Pioneer Woman's new holiday cookbook. It is on Food Network too but using canola oil instead. It is a great side dish for Cinco De Mayo, mexican night, or any night served alongside tacos, burritos, enchiladas, steak, chicken or anytime you need a great rice side dish. It has strong but fresh lime flavor so be advised. It is so good. Enjoy! ChefDLH

This rice was a bit too tangy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less lime juice.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my rice turned out a little dry. I think I should have added a little more water or broth.
