Immitation Chipotle Rice and Corn Salsa

Chipotle is very popular because it's so simple and very satisfying. I was thinking about it, and decided to try to recreate some of the stuff they make right in my own home. I decided on imitating the rice and the corn salsa because they are both very tasty and also quite simple.

It turned out like this:

Rice, Chipotle style:

Ingredients:
2 cups long grain rice (I used jasmine rice, I really like the fragrance and taste of it, but anything is fine. It was what was available at home.)
1 handful cilantro
1 lime
3 pinches of salt
1 spoonful of oil
All these ingredient portions can be altered. Less lime f you like it less sour, less cilantro if you like it less cilantro-ey.... etc

1. Cook the rice and let it cool a bit.
2. Mince the cilantro and add to rice.

3. Juice the lime and add it to the rice. Add salt and oil and mix everything together.
T'is done.

Corn Salsa

1 pack of frozen corn, thawed, but still cold
1 handful of cilantro
1 or 2 fresh jalepenos
1/4 of an onion
2 limes
1 tsp salt... a little less than that, perhaps. I dont know, I hardly ever really measure.

1. Okay, so mince up the cilantro, jalepenos, onion real fine and toss them in with the corn.

2. Juice the limes and add it and the salt to the corn mix.
3. Mix well. You can let this sit in the fridge for an hour or so to let the flavors mix a little more or you can eat it right away.

I like to have this with sliced avocados and some type of light meat. Fish or shredded chicken breast works really well because their flavors mingle well with the lime juice. A dollop of tour cream and some diced tomatoes are always a welcome addition as well. Enjoy!
