1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

CHIPOTLE CHICKEN BURRITOS

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3/4 cup pico de gallo or fresh salsa
1 chipotle chile in adobo sauce, chopped, plus 1 to 2 tablespoons sauce from the can
One 14-ounce can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken, skin removed
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro
Kosher salt
4 burrito-size flour tortillas
1 1/3 cups cooked white rice, warmed
1 1/3 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese (about 5 ounces)
1 1/3 cups shredded romaine lettuce
Guacamole, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 cup pico de gallo, the chopped chipotle and adobo sauce to taste; cook until the mixture starts to sizzle, about 2 minutes. Add the beans and 3/4 cup water; bring to a low boil, then stir in the chicken and cook until the mixture is slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cilantro and season with salt.
  • Heat the tortillas as the label directs. Arrange the rice horizontally in the lower half of each tortilla, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border on all sides. Top evenly with the cheese, chicken mixture, lettuce and the remaining pico de gallo.
  • Fold the bottom edge of each tortilla snugly over the filling, tuck in the sides and roll up tightly. Cut the burritos in half and serve with guacamole if using.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality pork: Look for pork shoulder or butt that is well-marbled with fat. This will help keep the meat juicy and flavorful during cooking.
  • Use a slow cooker: A slow cooker is the perfect way to cook pork shoulder. The low, slow heat will help to tenderize the meat and allow the flavors to develop.
  • Add plenty of spices: Chipotle peppers, cumin, oregano, and chili powder are all essential spices for this recipe. They will give the pork a rich, smoky flavor.
  • Don't forget the salsa: Salsa is the perfect way to add a fresh, acidic flavor to the burritos. Use your favorite store-bought or homemade salsa.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Guacamole, sour cream, pico de gallo, and shredded cheese are all classic burrito toppings. Choose your favorites and enjoy!

Conclusion:

Chipotle pork burritos are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that are perfect for any occasion. The slow-cooked pork is tender and flavorful, and the combination of chipotle peppers, cumin, oregano, and chili powder gives it a rich, smoky flavor. The burritos are then filled with your favorite toppings and wrapped in a warm tortilla. They are sure to be a hit with everyone at your table!
