cilantro lime rice

Herbed citrus grain

Cilantro lime rice is a side dish of cooked rice tossed with fresh cilantro and lime juice, often with a little oil or butter.

The bright, citrusy flavor pairs well with Mexican and Latin American food.

It became widely known through restaurant chains like Chipotle: I'll take a burrito bowl with cilantro lime rice.
