Cilantro Lime Rice

Love this side dish! Wonderful addition to a Mexican dish. Mark and I are not big fans of the Mexican or Spanish boxed rice so I was thrilled to find this recipe. It makes a lot of rice so I may consider halfing the recipe for our family next time. Guess where I got this?? You guessed it...What's On My Menu.

Ingredients:
1/2 bunch of cilantro
1/2 onion
1 4 oz can of green chiles
3 cups rice
6 cups of water
6 chicken bouillon cubes (I used 6 cups of chicken broth)
4 tsp minced garlic
1 Tbs canola oil
2 Tbs fresh lime juice

Blend cilantro, green chiles, and onion in food processor. Bring water (or broth) to a boil and add all other ingredients. Simmer covered for 30 minutes or until rice is cooked.
