Superb! My whole family loves Chipotle and I was really hoping that this was close to their rice. It definitely is and the kids were scraping the bowl clean. I will make this next time we are having burritos too. For flavor and ease of preparation, this is a great recipe!

    I used brown basmati rice which worked well enough but it definitely would have been better with the white rice. The taste of the seasoning was spot on in terms of matching the flavour of the rice at Chipotle.

    I don't live near a Chipotle's, but my sister does and she raves about the rice. I tried this recipe this evening for the family and we liked it well enough. I like the tang the lime gives the rice-something a little different.

    Excellent copycat recipe! This recipe was very close to Chipotle's rice...about 95% of the flavor. Thank you for the posting! NOTE: I will double this recipe in the future, as I did not seem to get 4 servings from the listed ingredients.

    This was great! We just got back from vacation where we were able to have chipotle's a few times and my husband was greatly missing it already, since it is one of his favorite places to eat. So since I was making a southwest crockpot chicken today I figured I would make this rice to go along with it, and put it all in a burrito. It turned out great even though I only had minute rice on hand. I just made as stated but obviously for much less time. I combined that along with the southwest chicken, guacamole, and red onion to make some great burritos! They would really have been great with some sour cream and cheese too, but we are on a no dairy diet right now.

    I have never eaten at Chiptole's, but this was a nice change of pace from plain basmati rice.
