We like to get burrito bowls from Chipotle, but aren't thrilled with paying for it several times a week. This isn't anything I'd claim as a clone , but is inspired by Chipotle/QDoba's burrito bowls. It's tasty, easy and filling. As a bonus, it's pretty good without any meat, making it a really viable option to serve a mixed group of vegetarian/carnivores for a party.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/3 cups basmati rice
2 cups water
2 limes
1 onion
2 garlic cloves
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chilies
1 (14 ounce) can black beans
1/4 cup white wine
2 cups grilled chicken or 2 cups pork or 2 cups steak
fresh cilantro
mexican cheese
salsa
sour cream
tortilla chips
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, combine the water, rice and juice from the 2 limes.
2. Bring rice mixture to a boil.
3. Reduce heat and simmer covered until all of the liquid is absorbed.
4. While the rice is cooking, chop the onion and the garlic.
5. In another saucepan, melt the butter.
