Easy Mexican!




I LOVE Mexican food and I love trying other's recipes.  While a recipe may sound good on paper, it doesn't always turn out that way.  One of my favorite things to do is try and tweak others recipes.  Tonight I made Slow Cooker Cilantro Lime Chicken and Chipotle's Cilantro Lime Rice.  The flavor in the chicken in bold and delicious. The rice seemed to balance the meal perfectly.

I tweaked the rice just a bit by adding one tablespoon butter to the oil mixture.  It tasted fairly similar to Chipotle's. My boyfriend and I were thinking the type of rice makes a huge difference because the texture was off but the flavor was just right. All in all, it's a good recipe and I would probably make it again.  It cooked the rice perfectly!  I put shredded Monterey Jack and Sour Cream on top of my chicken as well.
