1 1/3 cups raw 
white rice
3 cups 
chicken broth
1/4-1/2 cup

Put a little oil in bottom of pan (maybe about 1/2-1 tablespoon).
Saute chopped onion until translucent. Add the chopped cilantro (no big stems) and saute a minute more.
Add the rice, cooking until it is light brown (being careful not to burn).
Combine the chicken broth and sugar, letting sugar dissolve. Then stir into rice until combined. Bring to a boil.

You can put it in burritos or eat it as a side. Any way you eat this it's going to be heavenly.
