Light, flavorful, and aromatic, Cilantro Lime Jasmine Rice is a delightful side dish inspired by Latin and Asian cuisines. This dish begins with fluffy jasmine rice, known for its fragrant qualities and tender texture. Fresh cilantro and zesty lime juice are added to brighten the flavor profile, while olive oil or butter can lend a subtle richness. Often paired with tacos, grilled meats, or vibrant stir-fries, it’s versatile and complements a range of dishes. Nutritionally, jasmine rice provides a source of carbohydrates for energy, though it is lower in fiber compared to whole grains. Lime juice contributes a small dose of vitamin C, and cilantro offers antioxidants, though quantities are minimal in a serving. While generally low in fat, added oils can increase the calorie count, so portions matter for those watching their intake. Overall, it’s a fresh and delicious way to elevate meals with a pop of citrus and herbaceous flair.
