This was "OK." It's nothing special, but it's not "terrible" either. Actually, my fiance liked this a lot and said he'd eat it all by itself (I used the rice as a burrito filler). Even though ENseeber's Lime Cilantro Rice got a higher rating, Mrs. Brown's version sounded better to me (I think the amount of lime juice was spot on... adding lime zest as per ENseeber would have been overpowering IMHO). I must say that the rice/water ratio is WAAAAY off, but it could be because I used instant rice instead of long grain rice (?)!!! I didn't have any long grain rice on hand in order to compare the cooking directions on both packages. The back of my instant rice box directs to boil 1 c. water FIRST, THEN add 1 c. rice, cover and let sit for 5 minutes (this makes 2 servings - 1.5 c. water/rice would yield 3 servings, exactly half this recipe's yeild). I ended up draining the excess liquid and all was fine (whew!). Nothing compares to Chipotle's rice, but I'm glad I have this recipe on hand for those times I crave it! Thanks for sharing :)
