Steps:

• Place the rice in a fine mesh strainer and rinse it with cold water for a minute or two, until the water runs clear. Drain the rice well.
• If you're using a rice cooker, measure the rice and water using the manufacturer's measuring equipment. Place the rinsed rice, water, bay leaf, and 1 teaspoon of the rice bran oil in the rice cooker and turn it on.
• If you're using the stovetop, place the rinsed rice, water, and bay leaf in a medium-sized saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil before reducing it to a simmer. Cover the rice and cook, covered, for 12 to 15 minutes, until the rice has absorbed all the water.
• When the rice is finished cooking, add the remaining 2 teaspoons of rice bran oil to the pot without stirring. Replace the cover and let the rice rest for 10 minutes.
• Add the salt, cilantro, lime juice, and lemon juice and stir the rice using a fork. Add additional salt, if desired.

CHIPOTLE CHICKEN AND RICE

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven or heavy pot, heat oil over medium-high. Season chicken on both sides with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Working in batches, brown chicken on both sides, about 6 minutes total; transfer to a plate.
• Reduce heat to medium. Add onion and saute until soft, about 5 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from bottom of pot (if necessary, add a bit of water to release browned bits).
• Add garlic, cumin, and chiles; cook until garlic is soft and fragrant, 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and 1 teaspoon salt and cook until tomatoes begin to break down and release their juices, 3 minutes. Stir in 1 cup water and return chicken and any accumulated juices to pot. Cover, reduce to a simmer, and cook 25 minutes.
• Remove several pieces of chicken and stir in rice, making sure it is completely submerged in liquid. Replace chicken, cover, and cook until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 25 to 30 minutes more. Serve with lime wedges and cilantro if desired.

MEXICAN FRIED RICE WITH CHIPOTLE AND TURMERIC

Steps:

• Mix eggs with 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, salt and pepper. In a skillet on medium high heat, pour the eggs into the pan with a little oil. Make scrambled eggs by folding the eggs with a spatula, and set aside.
• In the same pan fry carrot matchsticks, onion and bell pepper with chipotle paste and the rest of the spices. Fry for a couple of minutes, until vegetables reach your desired softness. I like to cook them for about 5 minutes. Add in rice and frozen peas*. Give it a good mix and then add in eggs. Pour over soy sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
• I like to serve this with avocado and a dollop of sour cream. Adding some crunchy tortilla chips and shredded Mexican cheese are also high on my list!

CHIPOTLE LIME RICE

Steps:

• Cook the rice according to package directions. While the rice is cooking, combine the olive oil, lime juice and chipotle sauce in a small jar and shake to combine.
• Once the rice is cooked, while it is still steaming hot, place it in a large mixing bowl. Fluff with a fork and then drizzle with the lime sauce. Toss well to thoroughly coat and separate the rice.
• Taste and season generously with salt and pepper. Garnish with cilantro or parsley and serve with a wedge of lime for extra tang. Enjoy!
