Ah, dear readers, we embark on yet another culinary voyage! This time, we’ll be creating an enthralling concoction: a Cilantro Lime Rice, but with a twist – a touch of CBD oil to soothe the mind as much as the dish tantalizes the taste buds. This recipe, influenced by the vibrant flavors of Mexican cuisine and the tranquil essence of CBD, aims to deliver a gastronomic delight to the senses while simultaneously soothing the soul.
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients
1 cup of long-grain white rice
2 cups of water
1 tablespoon of CBD oil
1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
1 teaspoon of salt
1 clove garlic, minced
Zest and juice of 2 limes
1/2 cup of chopped fresh cilantro
Lime wedges, for serving
Instructions
- Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
- In a large saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium to high heat.
- Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let the rice simmer for about 18 minutes, or until the water has been fully absorbed by the rice.
- While the rice is cooking, heat the vegetable oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook just until it’s fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat.
- When the rice has finished cooking, remove the saucepan from the heat but keep the lid on. Let the rice steam for a few more minutes.
- Uncover the rice and fluff it gently with a fork. Stir in the lime zest, lime juice, cooked garlic, and CBD oil until well combined.
- Just before serving, stir in the fresh chopped cilantro and taste.
- Serve the Cilantro Lime Rice with additional lime wedges on the side for those who prefer an extra citrusy kick.
