Ingredients

1½ cups rice (heat it up if using leftover rice)
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
½ teaspoon garlic salt
2 cups shredded or chopped chicken
1 can (15 oz) black beans drained & rinsed
1/4 cup chopped green onion
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
juice of 1 lime
2 cups shredded cheese
1 cup sour cream
8 burrito-sized large tortillas

Instructions

In a large bowl stir the rice, chili powder, cumin and garlic salt until combined. Add in the chicken, black beans, green onions, cilantro, and lime juice. Stir together to combine.
Sprinkle some cheese over a tortilla, leaving 1/2-inch border around edges, then dollop about 3-4 dots of sour cream over the cheese.
Add some chicken/rice mixture (about 1/3 cup) and arrange down the center of the tortilla.
Fold up burrito style (fold in sides and then roll up from the bottom) or just fold into a wrap style. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Spray both sides of each burrito with cooking spray and place in a skillet pan over medium-high heat. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until desired crispiness.
Serve with salsa, sour cream, and guacamole!

Notes

Depending on how much you stuff the burritos, you will get between 6-8 burritos. I put 1/3 cup of the burrito filling onto each tortilla and get 8 burritos out of the recipe.

Use any shredded cheese you want!
