Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Add the diced red bell pepper and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Stir in the black beans, diced tomatoes (with liquid), and tomato paste.

Step 6

Add the chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, and salt, and mix well to combine.

Step 7

Simmer the mixture on low heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened and flavors are well blended.

Step 8

Warm the tortillas by heating them in a dry skillet for 20-30 seconds on each side or wrapping them in foil and placing them in a warm oven for 5 minutes.

Step 9

Assemble the wraps: Start by placing a scoop of cooked rice in the center of each tortilla, followed by a generous spoonful of the black bean chili.

Step 10

Top with shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of cilantro, and a dash of hot sauce, if desired.

Step 11

Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it up from the bottom to create a wrap.

Serve the wraps warm and enjoy!
