Method

Prepare the Filling

  1. 1

    Cook the Chorizo

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the chorizo. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Onions

    In the same skillet, add olive oil. Once hot, add the sliced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they are translucent and slightly caramelized.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Add the diced chicken to the skillet with the onions. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the chicken is cooked, add the cooked chorizo back into the skillet. Stir well to combine all ingredients. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow flavors to meld together.

Assemble the Burritos

  1. 5

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over low heat for about 30 seconds on each side to make them pliable.

  2. 6

    Fill the Tortillas

    Place a generous amount of the chicken and chorizo mixture in the center of each tortilla. Fold the sides over and roll tightly from the bottom to create a burrito.

  3. 7

    Top with Chile con Queso

    Place the filled burritos on a serving plate and drizzle with chile con queso. Add additional cooked chorizo on top for garnish.

Prepare the Sides

  1. 8

    Cook Spanish Rice

    Prepare Spanish rice according to package instructions. Typically this involves cooking rice in water with seasoning.

  2. 9

    Heat Refried Beans

    In a small saucepan, heat refried beans over low heat until warmed through, stirring occasionally.
