Instructions

1- Prepare the Chipotle Chicken:

In a bowl, combine diced chicken, chipotle sauce, and Adobo seasoning. Mix well to ensure the chicken is fully coated.
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken mixture.
Cook the chicken until fully cooked through, about 7-10 minutes, ensuring it is no longer pink in the center. Stir occasionally.

2- Prepare the Black Bean Mixture:

In a pot, combine black beans, diced tomatoes with green chilies, and chicken bouillon.
Cover and cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until heated through.

3- Prepare the Cilantro Lime Rice:

In a bowl, mix the cooked rice with lime juice and cilantro. Combine well until the rice is fragrant and evenly mixed.

4- Assemble the Burrito:

Lay a tortilla flat on a surface. Layer the desired amount of cheese, cilantro lime rice, black bean mixture, and chipotle chicken.
Add additional toppings such as queso, pico de gallo, guacamole, and sour cream.
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll the burrito tightly.

5- Toast the Burrito:

Heat a skillet on medium heat. Place the burrito seam side down and toast until golden brown.
Flip and toast the other side for a crispy, warm finish.
