Cooking Steps

1
  • Before starting, lightly oil the grill. While you prep, preheat the grill to medium-high heat (approx. 500°F).

  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.

  • To the boiling water, stir in rice and reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.

Review summary

Updated on Aug 2026
  • Flavour: The cilantro-lime butter and corn and sweet pepper salsa were well-received, making this a favourite for grilled salmon lovers.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding a squeeze of lime or a pinch of seasoning to the rice for a bit more flavour.
  • Portions: Some reviewers found the corn and pepper salsa a little light for two to four servings; consider bulking it up if serving hungry appetites.
