CROCK POT CHICKEN & BEAN BURRITOS



Crock Pot Chicken & Bean Burritos image

My kids loved tacos and chili, so I thought, "Why not burritos?" I started dumping things in the crock pot and my "famous" recipe was born.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 6h15m

Yield 10 burritos, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 lbs boneless chicken thighs (may use breasts)
2 (15 1/2 ounce) cans black beans, drained
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa
1 tablespoon cumin
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chilies
1/4 cup tequila or 1/4 cup beer
0.5 (16 ounce) package frozen corn
2 tablespoons vinegar
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can refried beans
10 burrito-size whole wheat tortillas
3/4 cup taco sauce
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
sour cream (to garnish)
sliced scallion (to garnish)

Steps:

  • In a crock pot add all ingredients EXCEPT vinegar, refried beans, tortillas, taco sauce, and cheddar.
  • Cook on low 6-8 hours.
  • Add vinegar and shred chicken with forks (I find a potato masher works well too).
  • In two 9x13 baking dishes spread half of the taco sauce and spread evenly.
  • Assemble burritos by smearing a tortilla down the middle with refried beans. Add approximately 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture, roll up and place seam-down in baking dish. Repeat until baking dish is full (usually 5 burritos in each dish for me).
  • Pour remaining taco sauce over burritos, sprinkle with cheddar cheese.
  • Bake at 350 for 10 minutes, or until cheese melts.
  • I love making a double batch of this and save the "guts" in a ziploc in the freezer for another day.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 6h15m

Yield 20-50 20 burrito size or 50 taco size tortillas, 20-50 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 large chicken breasts (approx 5-6 cups cooked)
4 (15 ounce) cans black beans (drained and rinsed)
2 (15 1/4 ounce) cans kernel corn (drained)
2 (10 ounce) diced tomatoes with green chilies (I used Rotel)
4 cups salsa (mild, medium, hot-your choice)
2 tablespoons cumin
1/2 cup chicken broth
20 -50 flour tortillas (20 burrito size or 50 taco size)
2 -3 cups cheese (cheddar, Colby-Jack, Mexican blend-your choice)

Steps:

  • Crockpot Directions.
  • Place all ingredients except tortillas and cheese in the crock pot and cook on low 6-8 hours. Take chicken out and shred or chop finely. Return the chicken to the crock pot and mix thoroughly.
  • Stove Top Directions.
  • Cook chicken, shred or chop finely. Add remaining ingredients except tortillas and cheese. Bring to a boil and simmer for 25-30 minutes.
  • To Prepare Burritos.
  • Warm tortillas in microwave to make them easier to roll. Place cheese on tortilla, add chicken mixture. Roll folding the ends in and place seam side down in a baking dish that has been sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. If you like a crispier burrito, bake 5 more minutes.
  • NOTE: I was able to get 50 burritos using the taco size tortillas. I prefer using the taco size because these are a great "grab" snack for my family.
  • Freezer Directions.
  • After the burritos have completely cooled, I placed them in freezer bags, removed the air and sealed. I can fit 4 burritos in a quart size bag and 8 in a gallon size. Bake for 20-30 minutes in toaster oven at 350 degrees.
  • If you don't wish to roll your burritos before freezing, place the chicken mixture in either quart or gallon size freezer bags, remove air and freeze. Attach a quart size bag with desired amount of cheese and freeze.
