Burrito with chicken, rice and beans topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 1.5 cups chopped grilled chicken, without skin
- 1 can (400 g) pinto beans, rinsed
- 1 tbsp. vegetable oil
- 3/4 cup pico de gallo or fresh salsa
- 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, chopped, + 1-2 tablespoons of the sauce from the jar
- 1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
- 4 wheat tortillas for burritos
- 1 and 1/3 cups boiled white rice, warm
- 1 and 1/3 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese (about 140 g)
- 1 and 1/3 tbsp. shredded romaine lettuce
- Guacamole, for serving (optional)
Preparation:
- In a medium saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 cup pico de gallo, chopped chipotle peppers, and adobo sauce to taste; cook until the mixture begins to sizzle, about 2 minutes. Add the beans and 3/4 cup water and bring to a simmer, then add the chicken and cook until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cilantro and season with salt to taste.
- Heat the tortillas according to the package directions. Spread the rice in a horizontal strip across the bottom half of each tortilla, leaving a 4 cm border on all sides. Top evenly with the grated cheese, chicken mixture, lettuce, and remaining pico de gallo.
- Fold the bottom edge of each tortilla tightly over the filling, tuck in the sides, and roll up tightly. Cut the burrito in half and serve with guacamole.
