Notes

  • Store leftover chipotle chicken and rice separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For best results, reheat the chipotle chicken in a skillet with a splash of water to keep it moist.
  • Top your bowl with your favorite fixings like black beans, corn, salsa, avocado, and a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor and texture.
  • For a deeper smoky flavor, bloom the chipotle powder in the hot oil for about 30 seconds before adding the chicken.
