I scoured the internet for what seemed like an eternity (but was only a matter of minutes) and managed to find a few recipes that claimed to be just like the one at Chipotle. I settled on this one and modified it a bit to suit my needs.
The end result was fantastic. It turned out better than expected and I have made it again since then. It can get a bit spicy if you use too many chipotle peppers (as I found out the second time I made it) but the affect doesn’t last long. I am going to be adding this one to my list of foods to make often.
