Ingredients:
- 500g chicken breasts
- ½ salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion (chopped)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 medium red bell pepper (chopped)
- 1½ cups refried beans
- ¼ cup water
- 8 large flour tortillas
- 2 cups Mexican rice
- 1 cup corn (canned)
- 2 cups cheddar cheese (shredded)
- Salsa
- Sour cream
- Nacho cheese sauce
Instructions:
- Season the chicken breast pieces with the salt, pepper, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika and dried oregano.
- Add chicken breast to the Crock-Pot and cook over medium-high heat until the chicken is cooked through.
- Add the onion, garlic, and red bell pepper to the Crock-Pot and stir. Cook until onion is translucent.
- Add the refried beans, water and stir everything together.
- Warm the tortillas for about 30 seconds. Warming them up simply makes them more pliable and easy to fold.
- To assemble tortillas, layer them with rice, chicken filling, corn, cheese and then fold them up burrito style. You should have enough ingredients to make 8 burritos.
- Toast them in the oven for 10 minutes, wrapped in foil, or pan fry over medium-high heat for 2 minutes per side until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese melts.
- Serve with salsa and sour cream.
