Lime Cilantro Rice with Pineapple

1 cup long grain white rice
2 cups water
2 tablespoons real butter
Juice from 1 large lime
1 (8-ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
1.2 -3/4 cups chopped cilantro
Kosher Salt and ground pepper to taste

1.    In a large saucepan, combine rice and water.  Bring to a boil over high heat and then reduce heat to low, cover tightly and cook for 20 minutes.  Remove from heat and allow to stand, covered for 5 minutes, so rice can absorb more water.
2.    After 5 minutes, add the butter and stir to melt.  Ad the lime juice, pineapple, and cilantro.  Stir to combine, and then add salt and pepper to taste.  Serve immediately.
