The rice I make is a little different and maybe some of the other reviewers will like this better. Omit the onion, squeeze one lime into the ingredients you blend. Everything else is the same. I have made this several times and love, love, love this rice! I think it is best though when served with the cafe rio chicken and the cafe rio dressing. Not exactly the same but great all the same! Thank you for posting! -
It was OK, but not like the CAfe Rio rice..I think i would be better without the can of green chilis. They added a very odd flavor to the rice. I saw the same recipe online, too and thought "Yea!" Next time, I will use chicken stock (easier for me), nix the canned chilis and add some fresh ones along with a little lime juice.. -
I made this with the intention of taking it to a party. If I could give it no stars I would. I tossed it. I followed the recipe exactly, it was disgusting! Thank goodness I prepared it early enough to make another dish.

I just turned 24 years old, and have been married for a little more than two years. My husband is my best friend, and I would be completely lost without him...which is why I scour this website looking for the perfect recipes to make for my sweetie!!
I love comfort foods, sweets, ice cream ( Pretty much ALL things bad for you). I also love a good cup of coffee, and love love love green tea. However, I am trying very HARD to change my eating habits, and live a better lifestyle. So far its a losing battle, but at least I'm trying, right? ;)

*** Three Stars: This was alright, but I would have to really change something in order to keep it.
** Two Stars: Didn't really like. Probably will never make again.
* One star: This just doesn't fit our taste, or did NOT turn out as posted. Will never make again.
