I'm always on the hunt for fast, healthy, tasty dinners to serve during the week. A few weeks ago I came across this recipe for BBQ Chicken Burritos via Delish and had to try it. Jeff loved these, and that's always a good sign! I tweaked the original recipe a tad to suit our likes though. For instance, I used
Greek yogurt instead of sour cream, a rotisserie chicken instead of roasted (which was a time saver)
and we opted to add a handful of cheese. Everything's better with cheese, right?
1 (2 lb) roasted or rotisserie chicken, skin & bones removed
1/2 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce
1 cup Goya Black Beans, drained & rinsed
1/2 cup fresh, canned, or frozen corn (thawed)
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
shredded leafy green lettuce
1/2 cup freshly grated mozzarella or gouda cheese
4 (10 inch) whole wheat or spinach tortillas
1. In a skillet over medium heat, toss in your chicken, BBQ sauce, black beans, corn, and Greek yogurt. Sir to combine. Heat up until hot, about 5-10 minutes.
2. In a separate skillet (or in the microwave) warm your tortillas.
3. Begin assembling burritos by first adding leafy lettuce then topping with BBQ chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla. Next add a sprinkling of cheese of your choice. Then roll the tortilla into a burrito.
4. Cut in half diagonally and serve with cole slaw and Spanish rice. Enjoy!
This is one of those super simple meals I call non-recipes. It's so easy my husband could make it ;)
