  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • Chicken breast: 1 pound, cubed
  • Olive oil: 1 tablespoon
  • Taco seasoning: 2 tablespoons
  • Onion: 1/2 medium, chopped
  • Bell pepper: 1/2 medium, chopped (any color)
  • Cooked rice: 1 cup
  • Black beans: 1 (15-ounce) can, rinsed and drained

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cubed chicken breast and cook until browned on all sides.

  6. Step 6: Divide the chicken and rice mixture evenly among the tortillas. Fold in the sides and roll up tightly to create burritos. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a quick lunch tomorrow, wrap leftover burritos individually in foil for easy reheating!
  • Reheat leftover burritos in a skillet with a touch of oil for a crispy tortilla.
  • Top your juicy chicken burrito with a dollop of sour cream and fresh salsa for extra flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet when cooking the chicken to ensure even browning and maximum juiciness.
