About Lime rice

Lime rice is a zesty and flavorful dish commonly associated with South Asian and Tex-Mex cuisines. Made by combining cooked rice with fresh lime juice, lime zest, and aromatic seasonings such as garlic, cumin, and cilantro, it offers a refreshing twist to traditional rice recipes. Variations may include the addition of green chilies or vegetables for extra flavor and nutrition. Lime rice is a low-fat, gluten-free side dish packed with vitamin C from the lime and essential carbohydrates from the rice, making it an excellent source of energy. Using brown rice instead of white can boost its fiber content for improved digestion and heart health. However, depending on preparation, it may be high in sodium if heavily seasoned. Pair lime rice with grilled proteins or beans for a balanced meal that complements its bright and tangy profile.
