Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3/4 cup pico de gallo or fresh salsa
1 chipotle chile in adobo sauce, chopped, plus 1 to 2 tablespoons sauce from the can
One 14-ounce can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken, skin removed
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro
Kosher salt
4 burrito-size flour tortillas
1 1/3 cups cooked white rice, warmed
1 1/3 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese (about 5 ounces)
1 1/3 cups shredded romaine lettuce
Guacamole, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 cup pico de gallo, the chopped chipotle and adobo sauce to taste; cook until the mixture starts to sizzle, about 2 minutes. Add the beans and 3/4 cup water; bring to a low boil, then stir in the chicken and cook until the mixture is slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cilantro and season with salt.
  • Heat the tortillas as the label directs. Arrange the rice horizontally in the lower half of each tortilla, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border on all sides. Top evenly with the cheese, chicken mixture, lettuce and the remaining pico de gallo.
  • Fold the bottom edge of each tortilla snugly over the filling, tuck in the sides and roll up tightly. Cut the burritos in half and serve with guacamole if using.
