Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add diced pepper, white part of scallions and garlic. Cook 1 to 2 minutes until aromatic.
Add coconut milk and water mixture; bring to a boil. Add rice and salt, reduce heat to a gentle simmer, cover and cook 12 minutes or until rice is nearly tender.
Stir in snow peas, lime peel and, if rice looks dry, another 1/4 cup water. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook 3 to 4 minutes until snow peas are crisp-tender. Remove from heat; stir in green part of scallion. Garnish with lime wedges and cilantro.
Good with grilled or broiled swordfish.
TIP Make sure the label on the can says coconut milk, not cream of coconut or coconut water.
