Ingredients

• 2 pieces Chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 15-ounce can Canned diced tomatoes with green chilies
• 2 cups Chicken broth
• 1 15-ounce can Black beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 cup Frozen corn
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 6 pieces Large flour tortillas
• 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 2 pieces Lime wedges, for garnish
• 0.5 cup Sour cream, for serving

Directions

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute.

Step 2

Add chicken breasts to the pot and pour in chicken broth and canned diced tomatoes with green chilies. Stir in cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cover and let simmer for 15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Step 3

Remove chicken breasts from the pot and shred them using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the pot.

Step 4

Stir in black beans and frozen corn. Let the mixture simmer for another 5-7 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 5

Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.

Step 6

To assemble the burritos, place a generous scoop of the chicken tortilla soup mixture (draining off some of the liquid) into the center of each tortilla. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and chopped cilantro.

Step 7

Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom to form the burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

Step 8

Optional: Lightly toast the burritos in a skillet for 1-2 minutes on each side for added crispness.

Step 9

Serve with sour cream on the side and lime wedges for a zesty garnish.
