Cook with 7 briquettes bottom heat and 14 briquettes top heat for 20 to 25 minutes, until done. Fluff rice and mix in cilantro, juice and zest.
From IdBlackPotPat: "We did this with the Chicken Enchiladas. It is a really nice change from typical Spanish Rice or plain rice." He also says he prefers basmati rice.
DeShawn:
I made this with chicken enchiladas last night. It goes VERY well with the enchiladas. The fresh lime zest really gives it some zing.
