  1. Rinse rice really well and let it dry as much as possible.
  2. Measure out 1 3/4 cups of broth.
  3. Add 2 tbsp oil to a pan then add rice (rice should be mostly dried). Cook on high heat constantly moving it around for 4-5 minutes.. DO NOT TAKE YOUR EYES OFF RICE! Keep moving around the pan so it does not burn
  4. Add broth, bring to a simmer. This should take 1 minutes. Cover, bring to lowest heat and cook for 19-22 minutes or until the liquid has evaporated and rice is perfectly cooked.
  5. Once heat is off, let rice sit for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, finely chop your cilantro and zest an entire lime. Add to the rice then mix and add garlic powder, juice of an entire lime, pinch of salt and fresh cracker pepper! Mix again, taste and add more lime juice if desired.
