Black Bean Chicken Burrito Recipe

Cociñero: Juliana Gnealy

This black bean burrito recipe have always been one of my favorite Mexican recipes. It is a pretty simple recipe and the burritos are excellent.

Ingredients:

  • 6 large flour tortillas
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 diced small onion
  • 1 minced peeled garlic clove
  • 10oz chopped cooked chicken breast
  • 15 1/2oz. black beans, drained
  • 1 cup of cooked white rice
  • 1 1/2 cups of diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup Mexican Cheese
  • Chopped cilantro, if not allergic

Instructions:

Place tortillas in tinfoil and place in oven at 400 degrees for 6 minutes. Simmer oil, onion and garlic in a frying pan while stirring. Mix in chicken once the onions have started to soften. Stir in the black beans, rice and fresh tomatoes.

Place the sauteed burrito meat mix into the warm tortillas and top the burrito mix with cheese and cilantro if you like. Roll the tortillas into burritos and sprinkle with cheese. Place the burritos into a greased baking dish and bake for 10 minutes on 400 degrees. Remove from the oven and serve. The burritos will be very hot!
