Instructions

1
Combine the rice, water, and 1/2 tsp salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover tightly, and cook until the water is fully absorbed and the rice is tender, about 18 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes.
2
While the rice cooks, make the pico de gallo: stir together the diced Roma tomatoes, white onion, jalapeño, 2 tbsp cilantro, 1 tbsp lime juice, and 1/4 tsp salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
