    Bay Leaf: One
    Minced Cilantro: 1/2 Cup

    Ok, so I'm a psycho and decided to go to Chipotle and get a bowl with their rice while I made the recipe in this video to see how close it came. I can tell you 100% the recipe in this video is spot on EXACTLY like Chipotle. Same taste, consistency, everything..

      if u add it after it wont absorb as much and have a richer flavor. It also will allow the other flavorings like the cilantro, pepper, lemon juice etc a medium to be absorbed into and distributed around all the rice surface.

      the corn is delivered (basically frozen but it thaws) with the poblano peppers already mixed in. the employees add red onion, finely chopped fresh cilantro, morton's kosher salt, and minute maid lime juice (not the sweet kind) but any lime juice works just add everything to taste cause in store its mixed in a giant bowl lol

    Also if you wantes to double the amount of rice do you double the other ingredients including 2 bay leaves?
