About Cilantro lime rice

Cilantro Lime Rice is a zesty and aromatic side dish celebrated in Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisines. Made with fluffy white or brown rice, it's infused with the bright flavors of freshly squeezed lime juice and finely chopped cilantro, often cooked with a touch of olive oil or butter for added richness. This dish is a versatile complement to grilled meats, beans, or vegetables and is a staple in burrito bowls and tacos. Nutritionally, Cilantro Lime Rice offers a source of energy through its carbohydrate content and provides small amounts of vitamin C from the lime and antioxidants from the cilantro. Opting for brown rice enhances its fiber content, supporting digestion and prolonged satiety. While a delicious option, its calorie count can increase if prepared with excessive oils or butter. Enjoy this vibrant dish in moderation as part of a balanced meal for a flavorful and nutritious dining experience.
