Spanish rice with fresh tomatoes, onions, garlic, cilantro, and lime juice is the perfect accompaniment to your favorite Mexican entrees. Quick and easy to make and cooks in one pan!
In a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions and garlic and cook until limp.
Add rice and cook, stirring regularly to coat with oil, until lightly toasted and golden.
Add tomatoes. Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes or until softened and begins to release juice.
Add broth, salt, and cumin. Stir until combined.
Bring to a boil. When bubbling, lower heat, cover tightly, and simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and rice grains are tender and fluffy.
Remove from heat and let stand for about 5 minutes.
Add cilantro and lime juice. Fluff rice with a fork. Serve hot.
