These two ingredients will completely change your plain white rice, transforming it into a delicious side dish. This pairs well with Mexican dishes or can be used as a topping on taco night. I also like to make this rice when cooking Carribean style dinners as it pairs well with jerk seasoning. I recently made this rice with jerk fish and topped it all off with mango salsa. You can find the mango salsa recipe on my page too!
You can substitute brown rice for white if preferred, but I would not recommend substituting lime for lemon.
