Delicious Chicken Cheese Burritos filled with seasoned chicken, cheese, and pico de gallo, perfect for busy weeknights or lazy lunches.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
  • 1 cup cooked white rice
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup pico de gallo
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken by tossing the shredded rotisserie chicken with cumin, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  2. Warm the tortillas by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for about 20-30 seconds.
  3. Layering the goodness: On each warm tortilla, spread sour cream, followed by cooked white rice, seasoned chicken, black beans, both cheeses, and pico de gallo.
  4. Roll it up by folding the sides of the tortilla inward and rolling from the bottom up tightly. Place seam-side down on a plate.
  5. Cook the burritos in a hot skillet with olive oil, seam-side down, cooking for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Rest the burritos for a minute, then slice them diagonally and garnish with fresh parsley and optional pico de gallo and sour cream.

Notes

Make the filling ahead of time and store in the fridge for up to 2 days. For a vegetarian option, replace chicken with sautéed mushrooms or extra beans.
