Cilantro Lime Rice

I like this recipe even better than the Cafe Rio one. Not quite as gooey.

4 Tbsp oil
2 cups white rice
amount of water the package calls for
2 Tbsp chicken bullion
1 cup chopped cilantro
The juice of 3 medium limes

Heat the oil in a pan. Add the rice and brown until it looks golden. Add water and chicken bullion. Cover and simmer until the water is about 90% dissolved. Stir in the lime juice and add cilantro. Simmer until all the rice is fully cooked and the water is absorbed.

Rice cooker option: after browning in the pan, put rice, water and bullion in the rice cooker. Cook as normal. When done, add lime juice and cilantro and cook for about five minutes more.
