The Foundation

A great burrito starts with the right tortilla. Large, soft flour tortillas are the traditional choice. Before assembling, warm the tortillas on a skillet or in the microwave for a few seconds. This makes them more pliable and brings out their flavor.

The Heart

There are endless possibilities for fillings, but essential components include well-seasoned proteins like chicken, beef, or tofu, a base layer of rice (white, brown, or cilantro lime), and your favorite beans. Add vegetables, melted cheese, and finish with sauces like guacamole or salsa.

The Technique

Place your warmed tortilla on a flat surface and add your fillings in the center. Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up from the bottom, tucking in the fillings as you go. 

The Finishing Touch

For an extra layer of texture and flavor, place your wrapped burrito on a hot skillet or grill pan for a few minutes on each side until the tortilla is crispy and golden. This is optional but highly recommended for that irresistible crunch!

The most important thing is to get the right tortillas. They should be big, thin, and stretchy so you can wrap them around the fillings. The next thing to do is to heat the tortilla in a pan. This will help melt the fat contained in the tortilla and enrich the flavor. After wrapping the tortilla, seal the ending by heating it in the pan some more, then flip it so the top gets crispy, too.

The final trick is to wrap the warm burrito in aluminum foil. It will keep your food warm, make it easy to take with you, and reduce the risk of spills. Watch the video below for more details.

Ingredients

The ingredient list includes:
1 lb skinless boneless cooked chicken breasts
9 whole wheat flour tortillas
1 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups salsa
1 15oz can refried beans
2 cups cooked brown rice
1/2 cup chopped cilantro

The meat should be cooked and chopped.

Instructions

Set the oven to 375 F degrees and prepare a baking pan with cooking spray.

Add 1/2 cup of the salsa to the pan and use a spoon to achieve an even layer. Top it off with 3 tortillas. The size of the pan should be 9×13 inches.

The next step is to add 1/3 of the chicken meat on top of the tortillas.

Continue with 1/4 of the beans, 1/4 cup of the cooked rice, and 1/2 cup of the cheese.

Now, add three more tortillas, and continue layering with the rest of the beans, rice, and cheese. Add the remaining salsa on top of the cheese.

Get foil and cover the baking pan. Cook it in the oven for half an hour. When it’s done, all you have to do is cover the top with Greek yogurt.

Elevate your Burrito Game with a Knife and Fork

Burritos are great because they’re versatile and filling. But, as delicious as they are, they can sometimes feel out-of-place on the dinner table. Our tip is to prepare them as usual, then finish them as you would traditional saucy and cheesy enchiladas.

First things first – make some burritos. Traditional fillings include taco-seasoned ground beef or shredded chicken, pinto beans, rice, cheese and salsa. For a vegetarian spin, try cumin-roasted sweet potatoes in place of the meat. Whatever you choose, roll those burritos as you normally would, then place them seam side down in a lightly-oiled overproof skillet.

Don’t Forget to Blanket those Burritos

Pour a 10 oz can of enchilada sauce over the rolled burritos, then cover it deep with 2 cups of shredded cheese. Place the burrito-filled skillet in a 350-degree pre-heated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the burritos are warmed through.

Finish off the dish by bringing in some cool and fresh ingredients to contrast the warmth and cheesiness. Chunks of fresh avocado, chopped cilantro, sliced green onions and lime wedges provide punches of flavor that’ll wow your family.

And, before you dig in, take out the nice napkins. This is a sit-down dinner!
