Barbecued Chicken and Black Bean Burritos
- 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, fresh or frozen (see Notes)
- 1 small onion (for about 1/2 cup chopped)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 clove fresh garlic, minced, or 1 teaspoon bottled minced garlic
- 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, or 1 cup homemade, defrosted if frozen
- 1/3 cup Freds Red Barbecue Sauce or purchased barbecue sauce
- 1/2 cup finely shredded Cheddar cheese, or more to taste
- 4 large (10- to 12-inch) flour tortillas
- About 1/4 cup regular or low-fat sour cream (optional)
- If the chicken is frozen, run it under hot water so you can remove the packaging.
- Place the chicken on a microwave-safe plate and microwave, uncovered, on high power for 3 minutes to partially defrost.
- Meanwhile, peel and dice the onion and set it aside.
- Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat.
- While the oil is heating, cut the chicken (fresh or partially defrosted) into bite-size pieces, adding them to the pan as you cut.
- When all of the chicken has been added, cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes.
- Add the garlic and onion to the skillet.
- Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, 3 to 4 minutes more.
- Meanwhile, rinse and drain the beans.
- When the chicken is cooked through, add the beans and barbecue sauce to the skillet and stir well to coat the chicken with the sauce.
- Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the mixture and continue to cook, without stirring, until the cheese melts, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, stack the tortillas on a microwave-safe plate and microwave until warm, following the package directions, 3 to 5 minutes.
- To serve, spoon some of the chicken mixture onto the center of each tortilla and add a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
- Tuck in one end and roll up the tortillas burrito-style.
- You can use 2 cups Perfect Poached Chicken, Poached Chicken Thighs, or Great Grilled Chicken Breasts, defrosted if frozen.
- Add in Step Or use 2 cups Chunky Seasoned Chicken, defrosted if frozen.
- Omit the onion, oil, and garlic.
- Begin the recipe at Step 5, adding the Chunky Seasoned Chicken with the beans and barbecue sauce in Step 6; cook until heated through.
