  • Author: Olivia

Ingredients

– 2 large chicken breasts
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 2 tablespoons chipotle seasoning
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– 4 large flour tortillas
– 1 cup cooked rice (white or brown)
– 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
– 1 cup corn (fresh or frozen)
– 1 cup shredded lettuce
– 1 cup diced tomatoes
– 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
– 1 cup guacamole
– ½ cup sour cream
– Fresh cilantro, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating your own Chipotle Chicken Burrito at home is a simple process. Follow these easy steps:

1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine olive oil, chipotle seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they’re fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
2. Cook the Chicken: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Cook the marinated chicken for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink inside. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes.
3. Shred the Chicken: Once the chicken has cooled slightly, shred it using two forks or chop it into bite-sized pieces.
4. Prepare the Tortillas: Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds until soft and pliable.
5. Assemble the Burrito: Lay a tortilla flat and layer the cooked rice, black beans, corn, shredded chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and a generous scoop of guacamole and sour cream.
6. Wrap the Burrito: Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll from the bottom up to secure the fillings inside. Ensure it’s tightly wrapped.
7. Toast the Burrito (Optional): For extra flavor, you can toast the wrapped burrito in a skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
8. Serve: Slice the burrito in half to showcase the vibrant fillings and serve immediately.
