Burrito Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Protein

    In a skillet, cook your chosen protein over medium heat until fully cooked. If using chicken, beef, or pork, ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). If using tofu or beans, heat through until warm.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Rice

    If not already cooked, prepare rice according to package instructions. Fluff and set aside to cool slightly.

  3. 3

    Chop Vegetables

    Chop lettuce, dice the tomato, and slice the avocado. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Warm the Tortilla

    Heat the large flour tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 15-30 seconds on each side until warm and pliable.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Layer Ingredients

    On the center of the warmed tortilla, layer the cooked protein, cooked rice, shredded cheese, chopped lettuce, diced tomato, sliced avocado, sour cream, and salsa.

  2. 6

    Roll the Burrito

    Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it tightly from the bottom to the top, ensuring the filling is secure inside the tortilla.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Cut the burrito in half if desired, serve with lime wedges and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro on top.
