Step 1

Bring 2 cups of water to a boil and add enough chicken bouillon for the broth to taste like slightly watered down ramen broth.

Step 2

Add rice, chopped onion, and slightly smashed garlic to a pot with a little bit of oil. Toast for around 10 minutes stirring CONSTANTLY to avoid burning. The rice should have the color of lightly toasted bread.

Step 3

Once toasted, pour water to pot with rice. WARNING: it will splash a bit and steam up, so pour slowly and be careful.

Step 4

Set pot to boil again and set a 15 minute timer. If the rice gets too dry (can't see moisture/water from the top) by the 10 minute mark, add a little bit of water with some chicken bouillon to not water down the flavor. Within the last 5 minutes small holes should appear, it is a sign the rice is almost all done.

Step 5

Taste the rice to make sure it is cooked all the way through and has enough bouillon. If it is all correct add in the juice of one half to one full lime.
