Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and diced onion. Sauté the chicken with the onion for 3-5 minutes until the chicken is browned.
- Then stir in the salsa, diced tomatoes, seasoning and chicken broth. Cover and simmer for 7-10 minutes until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
- Heat the refried beans and Spanish rice in separate bowls.
- Heat the tortillas for 30-45 seconds so that they are pliable.
- Place 1 of the tortillas in a flat surface. Spread 1-2 Tbsp of the refried beans on the center of the tortilla. Then top with 1/4-1/3 cup of the Spanish rice.
- Then place approximately 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture in each burrito and top it with the shredded cheese.
- Heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
- Wrap and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until brown slightly.
- Serve with your favorite burrito toppings and enjoy!
Notes
- Refrigerate any leftover burritos in an air tight container for up to 3-4 days.
- You can also freezer the leftover burritos for up to 3 months. I recommend wrapping them in foil and storing them in a freezer bag when freezing.
