Easy Chicken Avocado Burritos Flavorful and Quick Meal

Ingredients

• 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• to taste salt and pepper
• 2 large tortillas (flour or whole wheat)
• 1 ripe avocado, mashed
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 0.5 cup black beans, rinsed and drained
• 0.5 cup corn (canned or frozen)
• 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or pepper jack)
• for serving lime wedges

Instructions

1. In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Season the chicken breasts with chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes, then slice into thin strips.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the mashed avocado, halved cherry tomatoes, black beans, corn, and chopped cilantro. Mix gently to combine.
3. Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a portion of the avocado mixture onto the center of the tortilla, followed by a few slices of the cooked chicken, and top with shredded cheese.
4. Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards over the filling, then roll from the bottom up to create a burrito. Ensure the filling is secured inside with a tight roll.
5. Optional – for a crispy exterior, place the burrito seam-side down in the skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
6. Cut the burrito in half and serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
