Zepp's Coconut Lime rice

Props to my friend Zepp for her super tasty Coconut and Lime rice. She makes hers with brown rice, I tried it with short grain white, as that was what I had on hand. I'm sure either would yield a fantastic finished product. You might need to add more water if it seems too dry. We served it with the Thai Basil Chicken listed below.

Coconut Lime Rice
1 cup dry brown basmati rice
1 can light coconut milk
1/2 cup water
2 tbsp fresh squeezed lime juice
1 1/2 lime zest

-Combine rice, milk. water, and lime juice, bring to boil, cover, reduce heat to low and cook 35-45 minutes until liquid is absorbed and rice is cooked. turn off heat, stir in lime zest, let sit 4-5 min. add additiomal juice if you think it needs it.
