Pineapple Chicken Burritos image

Not too heavy, these "Hawaiian"-like burritos are a real family pleaser. They are full of chicken, corn, black beans, and yes, pineapple. There is just a touch of cheese over the top. The chicken cooks easily in the crock pot which makes assembly and just heating through super easy. This recipe makes a double-batch, so some can be frozen for a later time. I usually get about 16 - 18 burritos, for you this may vary according to your stuffing and rolling capabilities.

Time 7h20m

Yield 16-18 burritos, 16-18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 chicken breasts (fresh or frozen)
1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
2 cups salsa, medium (needs to be medium or it will be too bland)
3 cups cooked rice
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon onion salt
16 flour tortillas, burrito-sized (I use 8-inch)
2 (10 ounce) cans green enchilada sauce
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded (okay to sub monterey jack, or even a Mexican blend)

Steps:

  • Place the chicken in the crock pot and top with the pineapple, beans and salsa. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
  • Remove the chicken and shred. Mix the chicken back into the crock pot mixture.
  • Mix in the cooked rice, cumin, garlic salt and onion salt.
  • Use half of the mixture to fill 8 of the burrito tortillas. Allow the other half to cool.
  • Place the 8-ish burritos in a 9x13 pan. Pour 1 can of the green enchilada sauce over the burritos.
  • Top with 1 cup of the shredded cheese and place under the broiler on the middle rack until the cheese is nice and melted.
  • Enjoy!
  • *With the remaining cooled filling mixture, place it in a gallon sized freezer bag and freeze for another meal. You can also place the remaining tortillas and shredded cheese in separate freezer bags to freeze along with the mixture for a future meal if you would like.
  • **To use the frozen meal, thaw the filling, tortillas and cheese and reheat the filling mixture. Then follow steps 4-6 to complete.
  • Note: The Prep Time (20 minutes) is about 5 dumping stuff into the crock pot, then about 15 rolling up the burritos. The Cooking Time is roughly 6.5 crock pot hours and 10-15 broiler minutes.
