Combine “add first” ingredients to a medium nonstick pot over medium-high heat.

Bring to Boil

Wait until the water starts bubbling gently across the entire surface and you notice a slight foam forming on top. Once this happens, cover the pot with a lid and reduce heat to low.

Simmer for 13–15 minutes without taking off the lid, touching, or stirring. Check to make sure that water should be fully absorbed into rice.

Let Rest

After checking, quickly place the lid back on and remove pot from the stove. Let it stand, covered, for 10–15 minutes. It’s important not to rush this step as the rice continues to cook in its own steam.

Finish

Zest and juice limes to get 1/2 teaspoon zest and 3 tablespoons juice. Remove lid and gently fluff rice with fork. Stir in “add later” ingredients. Taste and adjust salt if needed. Enjoy!
