In a 3-quart saucepan, heat the olive oil, shallot, and garlic over high heat until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Stir in the rice, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Add 2 cups water and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and cook until the rice is tender and has absorbed the water, 15 to 20 minutes. With a fork, immediately fluff in the lime juice and zest, cover, and let sit for a few minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
