CURRY CHICKEN BURRITOS

Steps:

• In the middle of each tortilla, divide the Curry Chicken, Coconut Peas and Rice, mozzarella, green and red bell peppers, banana peppers and red onion. Fold the right side and left side of each tortilla to the middle, then take the bottom of each tortilla and pull it to the top of the ingredients. Push the ingredients back into the burrito using the now top portion of the tortilla; this is to tighten the burrito. Next, fold the top of each tortilla over the filling and tightly roll into a burrito.
• Add the vegetable oil to a cast-iron skillet set over medium heat until the oil shimmers but does not smoke. Add the burritos seam-side down and brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and brown the other side. Remove and let cool. Once cooled, wrap each in aluminum foil, place them in a freezer-safe zip bag and freeze. These will last 1 week in the freezer.
• To reheat: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Remove the burritos from the plastic bag. Place the burritos (still wrapped in aluminum foil) on a baking sheet and reheat until the burritos are hot in the center, about 45 minutes.
• Serve hot with cilantro, sour cream, guacamole and salsa on a bed of shredded lettuce.
• Drizzle the chicken breasts with some olive oil in a large bowl. Mix the curry powder, onion powder and cayenne together in a small bowl. Rub the chicken breasts with the seasoning mixture. Add the minced garlic to the chicken, mixing so the garlic is distributed throughout the chicken. Marinate the chicken, spices and garlic together for 30 minutes.
• Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add 1/4 cup olive oil. Sprinkle the chicken with kosher salt and sear it, in batches, until golden brown on each side. Remove the chicken to a plate. Add the sliced onions and diced potatoes and saute until the onions turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Then add the chicken back in along with the chicken stock. Bring to a boil and lower to a simmer. Cover and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 45 minutes to an hour.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Then add the rice, coconut milk, granulated garlic, onion powder, thyme, bay leaves and 2 cups water. Cook, uncovered, until the rice begins to peek through and begins to absorb the moisture. Then, stir in the chickpeas. Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Season with salt.

EASY CHICKEN BURRITOS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a frying pan and gently fry the onion until soft, about 10 minutes. Stir in the chipotle paste and the chicken to warm through.
• Heat the rice following pack instructions and warm through the kidney beans in their liquid in a small pan. Drain the beans and fold in the cooked rice, with half the lime juice and half the coriander.
• Mix the remaining coriander and lime juice with the avocado, mashing it well with some seasoning.
• Heat the wraps individually in a dry frying pan to warm through, or warm in the microwave for 5-10 seconds.
• Divide the rice and beans between the warmed wraps, piling the mixture into the middle of each one. Lay the chicken on top, then add a spoon each of the avocado, salsa, cheddar and soured cream, if using. Don't overfill the wraps or they will be difficult to close.
• With each wrap, fold over two ends to cover the filling, then carefully roll over and tuck the ends under to make a thick sausage shape with the folds on the base. Keep the prepared ones warm in a low oven as you work. Cut in half, on a diagonal, to serve.

CURRIED CHICKPEA BURRITOS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the rice and 1/4 teaspoon curry powder. Add 1 1/4 cups water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low; cover and cook until the liquid is absorbed, 15 minutes. Let stand off the heat, covered, 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in another small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add half of the red onion; cook, stirring, until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the garlic and remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder, then add the chickpeas, 1 cup water, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Mash some of the chickpeas against the side of the pan with the back of a spoon. Simmer until thickened, 13 to 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, dice the tomatoes and cucumbers and combine in a bowl with the remaining red onion; season with salt. Let sit 5 minutes, then drain off any liquid. Add the lemon juice and more salt, if needed.
• Warm the tortillas as the label directs. Top with the rice, forming a log in the center, then top with the chickpeas. Add 2 tablespoons yogurt and 2 tablespoons of the tomato-cucumber salsa to each tortilla. Fold in the sides of the tortillas and roll up. Serve with the remaining yogurt and salsa.

• Meanwhile, put the tomatoes and onion in a small bowl with the vinegar and set aside to pickle. Put the avocado in another bowl and mash with a fork, leaving some larger chunks. Stir in the lime juice and season well. Mix the soured cream with the harissa and set aside until ready to serve.
• Heat a griddle pan until nearly smoking. Add the tortillas , one at a time, charring each side until hot with griddle lines.
• Put everything on the table and build the fajitas : spread a little of the harissa cream over the tortilla, top with roasted chickpeas, guacamole, pickled salsa and coriander, if you like. Serve with the lime wedges for squeezing over.
