Instructions

1- Prepare the Chipotle Chicken:

• In a bowl, combine diced chicken, chipotle sauce, and Adobo seasoning. Mix well to ensure the chicken is fully coated.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken mixture.
• Cook the chicken until fully cooked through, about 7-10 minutes, ensuring it is no longer pink in the center. Stir occasionally.

2- Prepare the Black Bean Mixture:

• In a pot, combine black beans, diced tomatoes with green chilies, and chicken bouillon.
• Cover and cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until heated through.

3- Prepare the Cilantro Lime Rice:

• In a bowl, mix the cooked rice with lime juice and cilantro. Combine well until the rice is fragrant and evenly mixed.

4- Assemble the Burrito:

• Lay a tortilla flat on a surface. Layer the desired amount of cheese, cilantro lime rice, black bean mixture, and chipotle chicken.
• Add additional toppings such as queso, pico de gallo, guacamole, and sour cream.
• Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll the burrito tightly.

5- Toast the Burrito:

• Heat a skillet on medium heat. Place the burrito seam side down and toast until golden brown.
• Flip and toast the other side for a crispy, warm finish.
