Ingredients
4 boneless skinless chicken thighs
1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons chipotle powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup cooked brown rice
2 cups shredded lettuce
1/2 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup corn, cooked
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1/4 cup salsa
4 large burrito-sized flour tortillas
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
In a large bowl, mix together the olive oil, chipotle powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
Add the chicken thighs to the bowl and toss to coat evenly.
Place the chicken on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through.
To assemble the burritos, warm the tortillas in the oven or microwave.
Lay the tortillas on a flat surface and top with the cooked brown rice, lettuce, black beans, corn, cheese, salsa, and chicken.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll up completely.
Cut the burritos in half and serve.
Interesting Facts
Chipotle powder is made from dried and smoked jalapeno peppers.
The flavors of the dish will be enhanced if the chicken is marinated in the chipotle mixture for a few hours before cooking.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave.
