Burritos are famous all over the world especially in the United States. This dish originated from Mexico and it is served in almost all Mexican restaurants. It is a convenient meal that you can have on the go.

Beef and vegetarian burritos are also available and they taste awesome as well.

 

Ingredients:

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, diced

16 Ounces refried beans or black beans

1 cup cooked white rice

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Jalapenos (optional)

1 cup shredded cheese

2 cups shredded lettuce

1 1/2 cup salsa

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup guacamole

6 large flour tortillas

 

In a deep saucepan under medium flame, heat the oil and sauté the garlic. Add the diced chicken and stir-fry it for 8-10 minutes or until it is tender. Reduce the heat and add the salsa, rice, beans and jalapeno. Season it with cumin. Mix well.

Assemble the burritos by placing some meat and rice mixture, shredded cheese and lettuce on a tortilla.  Fold one end of the tortilla and then roll it. Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas. Wrap the burritos individually in foil and place it in a baking dish. Heat it in the oven at 300F for 5 minutes.

Serve warm with sour cream, guacamole and chips on the side.
