Chipotle Chicken and Rice

Chipotle Chicken and Rice provides alternate instructions for using this as a filling for quesadillas. We have done both the original recipe, and we have used the alternate instructions to make tacos topped with sour cream and baby greens. The chipotle that the recipe calls for provides plenty of flavor, either way. When I open a new can of chipotle chilis in adobo, I whiz the whole thing up in a blender and then freeze the puree in ice cube trays to use in recipes like this. The alternate instructions say to leave out both the water and the rice; the mixture seemed awfully dry so I added just 1/2 cup of water and that evaporated off during the cooking time.
