Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon chipotle chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup cooked white or brown rice
  • 1 cup black beans (drained and rinsed)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup corn kernels (optional)
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro (optional)
  • 1/2 cup chipotle ranch dressing

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, chipotle chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts to the marinade. Ensure they are well-coated. Allow marinating for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place marinated chicken on the grill. Cook for 6–7 minutes per side until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F). Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
  3. Lay out each flour tortilla on a flat surface. In the center of each tortilla, layer cooked rice, black beans, grilled chicken strips, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, corn (if using), cilantro (if using), and drizzle with chipotle ranch dressing.
  4. Fold in the sides of each tortilla over the filling. Then roll from one end to another tightly. Place seam-side down on a plate or skillet.
  5. Cut each burrito in half if desired and serve with extra chipotle ranch dressing on the side.
