Method

  1. Season chicken breasts with chili powder, cumin, salt and black pepper. Sear in olive oil, rest, and chop.
  2. Soften onion and garlic in the same pan. Stir in bell pepper, then refried beans, chopped chicken and a splash of water until thick and juicy.
  3. Warm flour tortillas. Down the center layer rice, the chicken-bean filling, corn and cheddar.
  4. Fold the sides, roll tight, and toast seam-side down in a dry pan until the cheese melts.

Shopping tip

Large wheat tortillas labelled wrap or burrito. Feijão refogado in cans (Old El Paso) or mash canned pinto. Arroz leftover from another night is fine.
