Chicken Chipotle Burrito Bowls

Linajjac's Note:

We thought this recipe was awesome!Tons of flavor. Add your chipotles to taste. We like it spicy, so I add more. I also added way more cumin. Instead of topping it with plain sour cream, I topped it with Patriot Chipotle Ranch Dip That went wonderful with it! The recipe doubles very nice. Makes great wraps with leftovers. Before adding your bean mixture, taste to see if it needs salted. I added salt to mine. You may need more rice than the recipe calls for. Source - Chefmeow

This is my kind of recipe! I love recipes that can be prepared ahead and popped in the oven as I sit back and enjoy myself as dinner bakes in the oven. This is one of those recipes and the results were wonderful! I might cut the chicken into a bit smaller chunks than I did. It was fine but that would just be my personal preference. We all enjoyed it - adding our favorite toppings. Thanks for sharing!

Burrito Bowls...another reason for me to move to Mexico and set up camp in Mamacita's kitchen. Subbed Mexican rice and made for PAC Fall 2011.
