    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, cook the jasmine rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, set aside.

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced or shredded chicken, season with salt and black pepper, and sauté until heated through.

    Finely chop the red onion and jalapeños. Set aside.

    Wrap the Burrito

    Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Cut the burritos in half and serve with extra white sauce on the side, if desired.
