A great mild cilantro flavor with just a hint of lime in it, this rice is the base for most of the burritos you’re going to enjoy at Chipotle. It’s also very similar to what you’ll find at Qdoba Mexican Grill.

You can use this in the Chipotle Barbacoa Burrito recipe I have.  You’ll obviously want to make up a big batch of the Barbacoa beef beforehand, as it takes about 7 hours to prepare.  Here are both recipes:

Enjoy!
