Ultimate Burritos (Easy)

7 ingredients
5 steps

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts, fried and diced into small pieces
  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 16 ounces salsa
  • 16 ounces refried beans
  • 12 ounces shredded cheese
  • 8 large flour tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

  1. 1
    1) Dice chicken breasts into cubes. Fry in lightly oiled frying pan until cooked through. Cut into small chunks. (This recipe is also a great way to use up leftover rotisserie chicken from the night before - just strip the remaining chicken and dice into bits).
  2. 2
    2) Boil rice, set aside.

    3) Assemble burritos. I layer the ingredients in the following order - first refried beans, then salsa, then rice, chicken, then cheese. However, any order will do. Fold the burrito - see pictures for how.
  4. 4
    4) Heat 1 tbsp oil in a frying pan. I like olive oil, but vegetable oil will also work. Heat between med-low and med temperature. There should be just enough oil to grease the bottom of the frying pan without pooling.
  5. 5
    5) Fry each burrito lightly on each side until golden brown. Add additional oil as needed. I find that I usually add a drizzle of oil after frying two burritos. Serve hot!
