Just the fragrant aromas as this bakes in the oven will have everyone asking for this recipe.
Preheat oven to 400 F/205 C
Combine the rice, 4 of the green onions, garlic, ginger, and zest and juice of 2 limes in a 15×10 inch casserole dish. Stir together to combine. Pour in the coconut milk and chicken stock or water. Give everything a stir to combine. Season with salt and spread out the rice evenly. Cover with foil and place in the oven.
Cook for 35-40 minutes, or until the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Uncover and allow to cook for 5-10 more minutes. Remove and set aside to rest for 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle remaining sliced green onions and cilantro over top. Serve with Lime wedges on the side.
You could make this with Brown Basmati as well but you would need to add an extra 1/2 cup of coconut milk and another cup of chicken stock or water. The cooking time would be longer, at least an extra 15 minutes.
