This Instant Pot Cilantro Lime Rice is so easy! I set the Instant Pot on the rice mode and the dish was finished in 12 minutes. I have the 6 quart Duo Instant Pot that has a rice mode: Here’s a link to that particular model: https://instantpot.com/portfolio-item/duo-6-quart

This rice is an excellent side dish to any Mexican food main course. I made it as a side dish for my Chipotle Ribeye Steaks the other night. It was the perfect side dish for the steak! Here’s the link if you want to try the steak too: https://the2spoons.com/tender-grilled-chipotle-glazed-ribeye-steak/.

Equipment

  • Instant Pot, Pressure Cooker

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup rice
  • canola oil
  • juice of one lime and the lime
  • handful of fresh chopped cilantro
  • 1 cup water
  • couple pinches of salt

Instructions
 

  • Select the sauté mode on the Instant Pot and cook the rice until it smells a little nutty and begins to slightly brown. Add the water, the lime juice and the whole lime to the pot. Set the Instant Pot on the Rice mode. I use the 12 minute, but there are less times. When complete, the steam has released, toss with a fork and add the cilantro tossing again. Check for salt. Serve immediately.
