My kids are always asking me to get Chipotle, so I thought why not make it at home! I made them homemade Chipotle bowls and the chicken was gone immediately, they absolutely loved this recipe! This honey chipotle chicken is made in the crockpot and requires little to no effort. My kids assembled there own chipotle bowls by layering the juicy chicken over white rice and spooning some more of that delicious sauce over the top. They customized their bowls with multiple toppings like black beans, corn, lettuce, cheese, sour cream, avocados, and cilantro. Try it for yourselves and let me know how you like it by leaving a comment on this post or you can send me a DM on Instagram!
