Marinated Chicken

Method

Marinated Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F). Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Burrito Assembly

  1. 3

    Prepare the Filling

    In a large bowl, mix cooked rice, black beans, corn, shredded cheese, and chopped cilantro until well combined.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Burrito

    Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Place a portion of the filling mixture in the center, followed by sliced grilled chicken and a dollop of sour cream. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll from the bottom to the top to enclose the filling completely.

  3. 5

    Serve

    Repeat the assembly process for the remaining tortillas. Serve the burritos warm, optionally with extra sour cream and salsa on the side.
