1

Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat.

Add 1 cup long grain white rice and a Chile Sano to the pan, frying for about 5 minutes until golden.

Add 4 tablespoons of tomato paste to the rice and mix well.

4

Pour in 3 cups of water and season with 2 teaspoons chicken bouillon, 1 teaspoon tomato bouillon, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, and salt. Mix and bring to a full simmer.

5

Cover the pan, reduce heat to low, and cook for 20 minutes until the water evaporates. Set rice aside.

6

In a separate pan over medium-high heat, add 2 pounds of ground beef and 1/2 onion, cooking for about 7 minutes until fully cooked.

7

Remove grease from the meat, leaving 2 tablespoons. Add 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and mix.

In a blender, combine 1/2 cup sour cream, 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 2-3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, 1 tablespoon pickled jalapeno juice, 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, Chipotle powder, and salt. Blend until smooth to make chipotle sauce.
