  1. Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
  2. Add the rice and cook, stirring often so the rice doesn't stick to the pan, for 3-4 minutes. Add the chicken broth and coconut milk then season with sea salt and pepper, to taste. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and let cook for 20 minutes.
  3. Remove the rice from the burner without removing the lid and let it sit for 5 minutes. Carefully remove the lid and fluff rice with a fork.
  4. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and mix until well combined. Taste & re-season if needed. Serve and enjoy.
