Cilantro Lime Rice

I know everyone raves over Cafe Rio food and I am right there with everyone, except my homemade version is MUCH better! We did the rice, beans, the sweet pork and a cilantro ranch dressing. It was heavenly! And I can't wait for leftovers for lunch today.

1 c. uncooked rice (not instant)
1 tsp butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp lime juice
3Tbsp chopped cilantro
1 tsp lime juice
1 can chicken broth
1 c. water
2 tsp sugar

In pan, combine rice, butter, garlic, 1 tsp lime juice, chicken broth, and water. Bring to a boil. Cover and cook on low 15-20 min or til rice is tender. Remove from heat. In small bowl combine lime juice, sugar, and cilantro. Pour over hot rice and mix as you fluff.
