Chicken Burrito

Sometimes my hubby goes on a cranky mode & I have dish out something international. This next Mexican dish was served out during one of these exploits. Ideally the burrito is made with red meat and mashed beans, but over here I have gone with a simpler version involving white meat. Easy, simple and tasty – a couple of burritos should satiate ones appetite quite well.

Ingredients

• 2 cups of chicken cleaned
• 1 tbsp. Bbq Sauce (optional)
• 1 Onion large finely chopped
• 3-4 cloves
• 2 medium tomatoes finely chopped
• 1 tbsp. tomato paste
• 1 green bell pepper julienned
• 1 yellow bell pepper julienned
• 1 cup cooked rice
• Salt and pepper to season
• 1 slice of cheese grated
• 4 tortillas Wraps

In a pan, add enough water to cook the chicken. Add salt and pepper. Cover and cook until chicken is done. Reserve the stock. Take the chicken pieces and shred them finely with a knife or with your fingers. Here you can add the bbq sauce or you can follow the next step.

In a small non-stick bottom pan, add 1 tsp. veg oil and add the chicken along with the Bbq sauce and fry till golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside. Into the same pan, roast the bell peppers for about 5 minutes and set aside.

Add 2 tbsp. Of veg oil and sauté onions till translucent. Add clove and sauté for a while. Add pepper and salt. Add tomatoes and add the reserved ½ cup chicken stock; cover and cook until tomatoes are done. Add rice and stir. Add tomato paste and add ½ cup of stock and cook on a high flame. Check for salt and pepper. At this stage it will taste like tomato rice. Yummyy!!!

Warm the tortillas and place the rice in the middle of the wrap; top with bell peppers, then with chicken and then with grated cheese. Fold the both the sides inwards and downside up and roll in a foil.

Serve hot!!!!
