First the Sauce

The ingredients are basic and simple: Cooked chicken, beans, Mexican-style tomatoes, tortillas, and cheese. I often mix these ingredients up a bit, based on what I have on hand. For this version, I used some prepared chicken I had on hand. Leftover chicken of any kind works well, and even canned chicken works in a pinch.

Put around two cups of chicken in your pan.

Add two cans of beans of your choice (I used black beans and pinto beans) and one can of Mexican-style tomatoes (I use mild Ro-Tels) to your pan.

Stir everything together, stick a lid on your pan, and go kick your shoes off and wrestle with the kids while your meal heats up on low/med for a few minutes.

Putting Them Together

When the smell is starting to drive you just a little crazy, you know it’s about time to eat. Stick a couple of flour tortillas on your plate (maybe just one for those with smaller appetites) and spoon some of that deliciousness right into the middle of them.

Grate some cheese in there (I used Colby-Jack but cheddar is a favorite, as well).

Roll your tortillas up around the filling inside. I personally like to fold my ends in first, and then roll the sides up so that everything is nicely inside. But really, roll them up in any way that works well for you. No one is handing out awards for Best Looking Chicken Burritos, after all. (But if you find out they are, please let me know, cuz I will OWN IT!) Besides, after you get your tortillas all rolled up into burritos, you are going to smother them with more filling and grated cheese. Everything looks better smothered in burrito filling and cheese!
