Enjoy this chicken in a salad bowl, rice bowl, in a burrito, or wraps! Be sure to make the Chipotle Honey Vinaigrette as well! *Please note: chipotle peppers in adobo sauce are spicy and smokey in flavor. If the entire can is too much, just use half, or only a few chipotle peppers in adobo sauce.For the full "chipotle rice bowl" experience, make my black beans and cilantro rice as well.
