Preparation Steps
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of avocado or olive oil over medium heat.
- Add 1 pound of ground chicken, diced red bell pepper, chopped onion, and jalapeño. Cook for 7-8 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chicken is browned and cooked through, and the vegetables have softened.
- Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 2 teaspoons of chili powder, 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, and 1 teaspoon of ground cumin. Stir well and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Add 2 cups of cooked rice, ½ cup of salsa verde, and 2 tablespoons of chipotle sauce to the skillet. Stir together until all ingredients are well combined and heated through.
- Lay an extra-large flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Start with a layer of the cheese, then spoon in about ½ cup of the chicken and rice mixture. Top with more cheese, fold the sides of the tortilla in, and roll it up tightly.
- In the same skillet, place the burrito seam-side down over medium heat. Toast until the bottom is golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Gently flip the burrito to toast the other side for another 3-4 minutes.
- Remove the burrito from the skillet and let it cool slightly. Slice it in half if desired, and serve with sour cream, guacamole, or crispy tortilla chips.
