Cilantro Lime Rice

In a large saucepan or lidded skillet, sauté olive oil (2 tbsp), onion (1 small) (diced), and cloves (4 garlic) (roughly chopped) over medium-high heat until fragrant and tender, about 4-5 minutes. Start 5m timer

Add rinsed long-grain rice (2 cups) and sauté for 1-2 minutes, ensuring each grain is coated. Then, add ground coriander (3 tsp), cumin (1 tsp), salt (1.5 tsp), and the zest from lime (1), toasting for 1 minute. Start 2m timer

Add water (3 cups) (adjust quantity per notes for rice type). Bring to a rapid boil. Cover, then reduce heat to medium-low to simmer gently. Cook for 13-14 minutes, until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Replace lid and let stand off heat for 5 minutes. Start 14m timer

Fluff with a fork, then squeeze with the juice from [1-2 limes] (2-4 tbsp). Just before serving, stir in cilantro (1 cup) (chopped) and scallions (3) (sliced). Fluff again, taste, and adjust salt and lime as needed. Serve with fresh lime wedges.
