Zesty Lime (& Garlic) Rice ( Pioneer Woman ) image

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
