Ingredients

• 6 pieces Tortillas (large, burrito-sized)
• 3 cups Shredded chicken (cooked)
• 2 cups Cooked white or brown rice
• 1 cup Black beans (drained and rinsed)
• 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup Shredded Monterey Jack cheese
• 2 cups Enchilada sauce (red or green)
• 1 4-ounce can Diced green chilies
• 0.5 cup Diced onions (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 tablespoon Cooking spray or oil
• 0 optional Sour cream (for serving)
• 0 optional Sliced avocado (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or a thin layer of oil.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, rice, black beans, 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, diced green chilies, and diced onions (if using). Mix until well combined.

Step 3

Lay a tortilla flat on your work surface. Spoon about 3/4 cup of the chicken and rice mixture onto the center of the tortilla. Fold the sides in and roll it up tightly to form a burrito. Place it seam-side down into the prepared baking dish. Repeat for the remaining tortillas.

Step 4

Pour the enchilada sauce evenly over the burritos, making sure they are fully covered.

Step 5

Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese and all of the Monterey Jack cheese over the top of the burritos.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped cilantro.

Step 8

Serve with sour cream, sliced avocado, or your favorite toppings on the side.
