Method

Preparation of Ingredients

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and dice the red skin potatoes into small cubes. Boil them in salted water for about 10-15 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a skillet over medium heat, add a small amount of oil. Sauté the diced onion and bell peppers until they are soft and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Scramble the Eggs

    In a bowl, whisk the eggs until combined. Pour them into a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Stir gently until they are just set and fluffy. Remove from heat.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Combine the Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the fried chicken, sautéed onion and peppers, boiled potatoes, scrambled eggs, and cheddar cheese. Mix until evenly combined.

  2. 5

    Wrap the Burritos

    Lay a large flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Place a generous amount of the filling mixture in the center of the tortilla. Fold the sides over the filling and then roll it tightly from the bottom to the top. Repeat with the second tortilla.

Serving

  1. 6

    Top and Serve

    Slice the burritos in half and place them on a plate. Drizzle with salsa verde, add a dollop of sour cream, sprinkle with pickled jalapenos, and garnish with cilantro. Serve immediately with extra red skin potatoes on the side.
