Burrito Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Protein

    In a bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken or steak, ensuring it's well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Protein

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken or steak for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Burritos

    On each tortilla, layer a scoop of cooked rice, black beans, sliced chicken or steak, shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped cilantro, and salsa. Be generous with the fillings but ensure you can wrap the burrito.

  4. 4

    Wrap the Burritos

    Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up from the bottom to the top, enclosing the fillings. Make sure it's tightly wrapped.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Cut the burrito in half and serve with additional salsa or sour cream on the side.
