Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    Dice the tomato and onion and mix with a pinch of salt to make a salsa. Finely shred the lettuce and grate the cheddar.

  2. 2

    Cut the chicken breast into thin strips and toss with the cumin, sweet paprika and remaining salt.

  3. 3

    Heat most of the sunflower oil in a wide skillet over high heat and sauté the chicken for 6-8 minutes until cooked through and browned at the edges; remove from the pan.

  4. 4

    In the same pan, warm the cooked rice and black beans with the remaining oil for 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Warm the tortillas in a dry pan for 20 seconds per side. Fill the center of each with rice and beans, chicken, cheddar, salsa, lettuce and sour cream; fold in the sides and roll up tightly.

  6. 6

    Place the burritos seam side down in the pan and toast over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side. Cut in half and serve hot.
