Crispy Southwest Chicken Wraps


These were easy and delicious. And it make A LOT.

ingredients:
1 cup cooked rice (I did brown rice in my rice cooker)
1 cup cooked, shredded chicken (I cooked 2 chicken breasts in the crockpot earlier in the day)
1 can black beans, rinsed & drained
1 green onion, finely sliced (white & green parts)
1/2 red or green pepper, diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
juice of 1 lime
1/2 Tbs chili powder
1 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. garlic salt
2 cups shredded cheese
sour cream (optional)
6 burrito sized tortillas (If you have the costco ones, those would be great, I used the burrito sized truly homemade tortillas from trader joes, which were also great)
directions:
Mix cooked rice with chili powder, cumin and garlic salt. Add remaining ingredients except cheese and sour cream.
Spray tortilla with cooking spray or spread with butter, and lay on skillet/pan. Sprinkle with cheese, leaving 1/2 inch border around edges. let cheese melt slightly and add sour cream dotted along center, then add mixture down center of tortilla (I didn't add as much as was shown in original recipe, but feel free to make as fat as you want). Roll tortilla, leaving edges open, and place seam side down. Heat about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp.

  3. canned chicken = gross. but that is just my opinion. i am sure you could use it. and who doesn't eat beans? rick is weird. i guess you could just omit them.
