But there is one thing that I do not like about Chipotle and that is the price – so I thought I would use my brain and make a copycat recipe for Chipotle RiceI did find a number of copycat recipes on the internet but they use TONS of oil or ingredients that are expensive. So after some experimenting I have come up with a perfect copy cat recipe of the Chipotle Rice!
