Ingredients

scaled from 4 servings
  • about 14 oz meat rotisserie chicken, pulled
  • 4 burrito size large flour tortillas
  • 2 cups cooked microwave white rice
  • 2 cans (4 oz) canned diced green chiles
  • 3/4 cup pepper jack, shredded
  • scant 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 can (15 oz), drained canned black beans
  • 1/4 cup salsa
  • 1 tsp each cumin, oregano and salt

Method (tap to check — screen stays awake)

  1. Warm the pulled chicken in a skillet over medium with the green chiles, cumin, oregano and salt for 5 minutes, until the liquid from the chiles cooks off and the mixture is thick rather than soupy.
  2. Heat the rice and stir the beans into it so the filling holds together when rolled.
  3. Soften the tortillas one at a time in a dry pan, 20 seconds a side, then load each with rice and beans, the green chile chicken, jack cheese, salsa and sour cream.
  4. Fold the ends in, roll tightly, and sear the burritos seam-side down in the hot dry pan for 2 minutes a side until the outside is browned and the cheese inside has melted.
