Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Wash and chop the vegetables: mushrooms, bell peppers, onion, and tomato. Slice the chicken and steak into strips.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Protein

    In a bowl, combine the chicken and steak with olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Protein

    In a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat, cook the marinated chicken and steak until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove and let rest.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same pan, add a little more olive oil if necessary, and sauté the mushrooms, bell peppers, onion, and tomato until they are tender, about 5-6 minutes.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Assemble the Burrito Azteca

    On a large plate, layer the cooked rice and beans. Slice the grilled chicken and steak and place them on top of the rice and beans. Add the sautéed vegetables, drizzle with green sauce, and top with cheese dip.

  2. 6

    Add Pico de Gallo

    Finally, add a generous scoop of pico de gallo on top of the assembled ingredients.
