Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 5h45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
2 tablespoons chicken broth
1 onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 jalapenos, seeded and chopped
1 cup frozen corn
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 red bell pepper, cut into thin slices
1 green bell pepper, cut into thin slices
3 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
6 flour tortillas (10-inch)
ripe tomatoes
sour cream (I use reduced fat)
lettuce
monterey jack cheese

Steps:

  • Place chicken on a cutting board and chop into bite-sized strips. Place in a crockpot on high.
  • Stir in the broth, onion, garlic, jalapenos, corn, salt, pepper, chili powder, cayenne pepper, cumin, lime juice, oregano, and cilantro.
  • Simmer on high for 5 hours.
  • Remove chicken from crockpot and shred with two forks; and place back into crock pot.
  • Place sliced red and green pepper into crock pot, cover and cook another 30 minutes (we still like to have a little crispness to our peppers so if you want them softer cook longer)
  • Place equal portions of chicken mixture in the center of the tortillas. Sprinkle with whatever toppings you prefer, such as diced tomatoes, sour cream, lettuce and cheese.
  • Fold burrito up 2/3 of the way to the other side over the chicken mixture. Fold sides in towards the center.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken.
  • If you don't have a crock pot, you can make these burritos in a slow cooker.
  • To make the burritos ahead of time, cook them according to the recipe and then let them cool completely. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 2 months. To reheat, thaw the burritos overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for 1-2 hours. Then, heat them in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until warmed through.
  • Serve the burritos with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, salsa, guacamole, or shredded lettuce.
