Chicken Burritas

Last night's dinner was an impromptu idea inspired by the need to use up a red bell pepper I had before it went bad.  Usually when I think red bell pepper, I immediately think of Fajitas (it's like a word association game....).  I perused the fridge and realized a Mexican feast was possible with the ingredients I had...however the meal would be neither a burrito or a fajita....so it was a BURRITA :)

Saz's Chicken Burritas

1/2 White Onion

2 Garlic Cloves

1 Red Bell Pepper

1.5 lbs of Chicken Breasts

1 tsp Red Pepper Flakes

1/2 tsp Chili Powder

1/2 tsp Paprika

1 tsp Oregano

1 tbsp. Parsley

Burrito Tortillas

Garnishes (I used tomatoes, sour cream and cheddar cheese)

> Chop up your onion, red bell pepper, garlic and parsley.

 >Cut up your chicken into small bite-sized pieces.

 > In a skillet, heat up about 1-2 tbsp of Olive Oil and once hot, add in your red pepper flakes.  Cook for about 2 minutes (don't let them burn, just let them pop a little).

 > Then add in your onion, red bell pepper, garlic and parsley.

 > Let this mixture cook for about 5 minute and then add in the paprika, oregano, and chili powder.

 > Cook this mixture down until the onions are translucent and the bell peppers are nice and soft...

> Once it's cooked down - add in your chicken and cook until the chicken is fully cooked through.

 > Now it's time for the assembly! The fun part! You can garnish these with anything from beans to guacamole to cheese -- I chose tomatoes, cheddar cheese and sour cream because it was what I had in the fridge

These are hands down, the BEST burrito tortillas ever!

YUMMMMY! Simple, quick and delicious burritas!  They're also extremely healthy :) ENJOY!
