I LOVED this rice as did my dinner guests. I had given away the recipe before dinner was even over. Will definitely make often. The cilantro tops it off perfectly!

My family and I love this rice dish. Not too hot, not too blah, juuuust right! It is such an easy side and taste great with a variety of dishes. While the recipe alone is 5 stars (and yes, I have made it exactly as written many times), I like to add more chopped cilantro (about 1/2 cup) and the juice of half a lime...OMG--delicious!! We like to eat it on burritos or topped with black beans. I highly recommend this recipe.

This is sooo delicious! I usually do the 90 second rice because it's fast. I think I'll start using this rice even if it does take longer. I used parsley instead of cilantro because that's what I had. You could really change it up with different flavors.

This was great! So simple to prepare and the taste was far better than I anticipated. Only change was to add the seeds from the jalapenos...as we like heat. Will be making this many more times. Many thanks to the submitter

This is a great rice side dish that will compliment any kind of meat. The cilantro, jalepenos and cumin give it its zip. It would be a nice side to any Mexican themed meal but perked up my pork chops and corn on the cob tonight. It was simple to prepare. I will serve again. Thanks for the recipe.

We absolutely loved this rice dish. It's now my new favorite rice side dish. Look forward to making this dish for others to try!

This recipe is SOOO good! I didn't have jalapenos but I did have a spicy red chutney (go figure) so I added about 1/2 teaspoon of that just to give it the zip. I almost made a second batch because my husband was hogging the saucepan to scrape out the last tiny pieces of rice. I'm making it with chicken tonight, it will go with anything! This might even replace mexican rice on taco nights! Thanks!

I will never buy "in-the-box-ready-to-go" rice again. This recipe is fantastic. The rice came out perfect. Not too soggy, full of flavor, and soo tender. Will use again!

This is soooo good !! We've made it several times now and have always loved it. We added mushrooms this last time, only because we love them with rice :o) But really, there are no changes needed for this recipe. Thank you for sharing !!!

This is a great way to keep rice from being boring. Since I live for spicy foods I used one jalapeno and one anaheim pepper. Otherwise didn't change a thing.
