Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breast boneless and skinless
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper diced
- 1 onion diced
- 1 cup rice cooked
- 1 cup black beans rinsed and drained
- ½ cup cheddar cheese shredded
- 8 inch flour tortillas
- lettuce optional, chopped
- salsa optional
- sour cream optional
- cilantro optional, chopped
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together the cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Rub the mixture all over the chicken breasts.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside to cool.
- In the same skillet, add the diced bell pepper and onion. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- While the vegetables are cooking, shred the chicken using two forks or your hands.
- Add the shredded chicken to the skillet with the vegetables and stir to combine.
- Add the cooked rice and black beans to the skillet and stir until everything is well combined.Warm the flour tortillas in the microwave or on a dry skillet, for about 20-30 seconds.
- To assemble the burritos, lay a tortilla on a flat surface. Spoon some of the chicken mixture onto the center of the tortilla, leaving a little room around the edges. Sprinkle some shredded cheese on top. Roll the tortilla up tightly, tucking in the edges as you go, to create a burrito.
- Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and place the burritos on the skillet, seam-side down. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until lightly golden and crispy.
- Serve the burritos with lettuce, salsa, sour cream, and cilantro, if desired.
Notes
- Feel free to adjust the spices and ingredients to your taste preference. You can also add additional toppings such as lettuce, avocado or jalapenos.
