Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 flour tortillas (12")
1 jar salsa (16 ounces)
2 cups monterey jack cheese (shredded, divided)
1 rotisserie chicken (small)

  • Add in the chicken and stir to combine. If there is a lot of moisture in the skillet keep cooking over medium just until the water cooks off.

SIMPLE CHICKEN BURRITO



Simple Chicken Burrito image

A simple chicken, rice, and bean burrito. Very quick and consistent recipe. Extremely hard to screw up, so it's a good one for even the worst of cooks!

Provided by Countessme

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 35m

Yield 1 burrito, 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 1/2 cups refried black beans
2 cups rice
3 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
2 cups mild salsa
2 teaspoons canola oil
5 large flour tortillas

Steps:

  • You can dice the chicken after it's cooked, but I prefer to do it before hand. cut each breast into 1/2 inch strips (estimated) and then each strip into small cubes. Cook them on a skillet in the oil.
  • While the chicken cooks, warm up the beans in a small sauce pan, stir them constantly so they don't stick.
  • Once the chicken is cooked thoroughly, pull it and the beans off of the stove. This should take about 15 minutes on Medium if the chicken is in cubes already, but it varies from stove to stove.
  • If the tortillas you're using are homemade, skip this step, if they're store bought taco type shells, put them in the microwave for 15 seconds.
  • Make the burritos the same way you would make a taco, using the beans, rice, chicken, salsa, and any other toppings of your choosing.
