This was tasty. I think the next time, though, I will add even more cilantro and lime zest. It needed just a little more flavor for me. However, it got my ten year old son to eat rice any way other than plain. (That's a big plus for my husband and I, that like flavor in our rice.

One of my favorites! My step mom makes this all the time for me when I visit. She always uses left over Basamati rice and adds a little extra cilantro and cheese. Absolutely delish!!!!
