  • Olive oil: 1 tablespoon
  • Taco seasoning: 2 tablespoons

  • Cooked rice: 1 cup
  • Black beans: 1 (15-ounce) can, rinsed and drained

Notes

  • Store leftover burritos wrapped tightly in foil in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For best results, reheat burritos in a skillet or oven to maintain a crispy tortilla.
  • Top your juicy burrito with a dollop of sour cream or guacamole and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro for extra flavor.
  • To prevent soggy burritos, briefly sauté the cooked rice before adding it to the chicken mixture to remove excess moisture.
