Grilled Black Bean Burritos With Chicken Or Not And Creamy Cilantro Jalapeno Sauce Food

GRILLED BLACK BEAN BURRITOS WITH CHICKEN (OR NOT) AND CREAMY CILANTRO-JALAPENO SAUCE

Steps:

• Make the Creamy Cilantro-Jalapeno Sauce. Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until pureed. Cover and chill for at least 30 minutes, or up to two days.
• In a medium bowl, add the chicken (if using), beans, corn, rice, cheese, and cilantro-jalapeno sauce. Gently stir with a fork. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Lay out flour tortillas and divide mixture between them. Place the mixture on on the bottom half of the tortilla, fold the sides in, then roll up the tortilla.
• Grill on the panini press per your press's instructions (I cook two at a time and it takes about four minutes per batch).
• Serve drizzled with additional Creamy Cilantro-Jalapeno sauce, salsa, avocado, and any other condiments you desire.
