Cafe Rio Cilantro Lime Rice (Copy-Cat)

Served with the *Not* Cafe Rio Chicken, this Cilantro Lime Rice recipe is a pretty close match to the real deal.  It may look a little different in the picture, but that's because we use brown rice instead of white (and because I'm not a great photographer).  Still tastes just as good though, and also pairs wonderfully with the Cafe Rio Sweet Pork Burritos!
