Coconut Rice

This rice has just the right amount of coconut flavor. Enough that you can taste it, but not so much that it is overpowering. It was the perfect complement to the Mandarin Orange Chicken that I posted a few days ago.

1 cup white rice

1 14 oz can light coconut milk

3 Tbsp water

1/2 tsp salt

1/8 cup coconut

Combine rice, coconut milk, water, and salt in a medium sized saucepan over medium heat. When it comes to a full boil, reduce to medium-low and cook for approximately 20 minutes or until the liquid has completely absorbed and the rice is soft. Stir in the coconut and serve hot.
