Time 3h10m

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 pound chicken tenders or boneless breasts
1 pkg taco seasoning
1-16 oz jar salsa
1 can black beans drained
1 can pinto beans drained
3 cups shredded cheese, I use a mixture of pepper jack and cheddar
8-12 inch sized tortillas
1 teaspoon olive oil
pinch of chopped cilantro
juice of 1 lime
2 cups cooked white rice, I use long grain rice
2 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic minced
3 tablespoons chopped cilantro, or more if you like it
Juice of 2 limes
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 Roma tomatoes, cored and diced small
1 cup onion finely diced
1 jalapeño, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons fresh chopped cilantro
1/4 teaspoon Salt
Juice of 1 lime

Steps:

  • In a slow cooker add chicken, salsa and taco seasoning. Cook for 2 hours on high
  • When chicken is done shred with two forks allowing it to mix with the juices. Add bean and cilantro and mix until combined.
  • In a large pot add butter and garlic, cook until fragrant about 1 minute. Add cooked rice and lime juice, cilantro and salt and mix until combined.
  • In a small bowl add tomatoes, onion, jalapeno, salt, lime juice and cilantro. mix until combined and set aside.
  • Add some shredded chicken and rice, into the tortillas then add cheese (about 1/4 cup each) and Pico De Gallo. Tuck the sides in and roll the burrito up.
  • Heat a skillet on medium low and add olive oil, add the wrapped burritos seam side down and heat for 4-5 minutes turning the burritos every minute so they don't burn. You just want the tortilla to get a little crispy and the cheese to melt. Serves 6-8
  • Garnish with guacamole and sour cream
