Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook ground chicken until browned and no longer pink, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes.
-
Add chopped onion, minced garlic, and diced red bell pepper to the skillet. Stir and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
-
Sprinkle cumin, chili powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper over the chicken and vegetables. Stir well to combine and let the spices cook for a minute to release their flavors.
-
Add black beans and corn to the skillet. Stir to incorporate all the ingredients and let them heat through for 2-3 minutes.
-
Squeeze the juice of one lime over the mixture and sprinkle fresh cilantro on top. Stir well to combine and remove from heat.
-
Warm the flour tortillas in a pan or microwave to make them pliable for rolling.
-
To assemble the burritos, spoon a portion of the chicken mixture onto the center of a tortilla. Top with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
-
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to create a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
-
If desired, toast the assembled burritos on a panini press or skillet for a crispy exterior.
-
Serve the Chicken Mince Burritos hot, accompanied by salsa, sour cream, and avocado slices on the side for a complete meal experience.
