Chicken Burrito
September 5, 2011
If you have ever been to Freebirds or Chipotle then you would know that they can stuff anything inside of a burrito and make it fit. Well, Shaun and I did a replica of what we would like in our burritos. You can make everyone the same burrito or have a topping bar so that each person can pick and choose what they want. ENJOY!
Ingredients:
2 lbs. chicken, marinated fajita meat
1 cup red onions, sliced
1 4.40 oz. long grain rice box
1 15oz. can black beans, warmed
1 cup mixture of jalapeno jack and mild cheddar cheese, shredded
2 Tbsp olive oil
juice from 1 1/2 limes
2 Tbsp cilantro, chopped
4 12 inch tortillas
Extra Toppings:
Pico de gao
guacamole
sour cream
Preparation:
Add 1 Tbsp olive oil in cast iron skillet over medium heat
Add chicken to pan and cook until done and chicken is no longer pink in the middle
In medium sauce pan over medium heat add the rest of the 1 Tbsp of olive oil
Add the onions and saute until tender
While chicken and onions are cooking bring water to boil in medium size pot
Add the rice and cook according to the box
Drain the rice and add cilantro and lime juice
Mix the rice well and place aside
Warm black beans in a microwavable bowl
Heat the tortillas up in microwave for 15 seconds just to warm up
Top each tortilla with chicken, rice, onions, beans, cheese, pico, sour cream and guacamole
Fold each end and then roll tortilla
Use foil around the tortilla if you want it to stay rolled up
