Other Chipotle Recipe – Copycat Recipe: Chipotle’s Cilantro Lime Rice
First off I LOVE Chipotle but not the price tag. You do get a lot of food at Chipotle but it is more wallet- friendly to make the copy cat versions at home
I decided to tackle Chipotle’s Guacamole. Plus it is gluten-free.
I was able to see the official Chipotle’s Guacamole and took the time to size it down for you
Now there are many copy cat recipes for this guacamole out there BUT many forget the secret ingredient — Lemon Juice !
What You Need
3 Ripe Avocados
1/2 Cup of Chopped Red Onions
1/2 Cup of Chopped Cilantro
1/3 Cup Chopped Jalapeno
1/8 Cup of Lemon and Lime Juice — 80/20 ratio
Pinch of salt
What To Do
Place Avocados in a bowl and mash with a fork – You will want to leave it a little chunky.
Add all the other ingredients and mix
and Enjoy!!!!
(WARNING: This recipe is VERY addictive)

hi, does 1/8 cup of lemon and lime juice mean 1/8 cup of each, or mix the juice and use 1/8 cup of it? thanks
Sandra
Not of each
80% lime
20% Lemon
Hi! It sounds perfect, baring one thing: Chipotle puts salt in theirs as well. Normally 3 tablespoons for a batch, so I would recommend a pinch. Otherwise, that’s a fantastic copy!
Cheers!
Yum!!!!!
I just made this and my hubby and I LOVE it!! I wouldn’t change a thing, although, I didn’t measure anything!! I do have one question, this is the first time I have ever used cilantro, do I chop it while it is still on the stems?
I am so glad you liked it
You can eat the stems in cilantro – I usually only use the leaves.
How do you chop just the leaves? Thats what I did, but I wasn’t able to get them very finely chopped.
I actually have a herb knife. Basically take all the leaves and squish them together and cut them as finely as possible… I hope that helps.
Thanks for the recipe! You can also use kitchen scissors to cut up parsley or cilantro leaves. Very easy!
It’s Kosher Salt
Hi, just for clarification is it 80% lime or lemon because in the recipe you have it listed as Lemon then Lime (80-20) but in an above comment you have it as Lime then Lemon. The original makes me think that it should be 80 percent lemon as lemon is the first listed.
I was wondering the same thing!
How much does this serve? Just wondering if I need to double
Yes, I was also wondering how many people does this serve?
about 4
I made this a month ago and can’t wait to make it again. Fantastic!
I see you placed your wooden cutting board on top of a hot stove element. Apparently, we are kitchen sisters
Anyway, I wonder just how much a difference the cilantro makes, as I’ve been making guac for years without it.
Cilantro makes it AmAzInG! Try it, it gives it a fresh taste.
This looks amazing!
Very easy and straight forward. I’m a total guacamole addict so I’ll be making this very soon.
So glad I found this. I love anything Chipotle makes. Can’t wait to try it.
I made this and the rice two days ago. It was a hit! The husband and I went out of our comfort zone with the cilantro lime rice, but was surprised how much we liked it. I will be making it again next week
Thanks to you BSD I can cook and have my husband like it
Love this recipe! I included a link to it in a round-up of quick and easy appetizers on my blog at http://thecozyabode.com/?p=667.
Bacon! I thought they used bacon as well?
When you say chopped jalapeno – is that with or without the seeds? I know if I like spicy use the seeds, but what does Chipolte do?
Without the seeds
This guac is amazing. 2 legit 2 quit.
