    In a pot of boiling water, add salt and rice. Bring it back to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover the pot, and let it simmer until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender, which usually takes about 15-18 minutes. Once cooked, uncover the pot and fluff the rice with a fork. Then, add lime zest, lime juice, cilantro, and additional salt to taste, mixing everything together.
