Ingredients

• 2 pieces Chicken breast
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 1 teaspoon Cumin
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Pepper
• 1 cup White rice
• 2 cups Chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 1 teaspoon Lime zest
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Hot sauce
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 4 pieces Large flour tortillas

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, prepare the marinade by combining olive oil, lime juice, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Step 2

Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes, or refrigerate for up to 2 hours for a deeper flavor.

Step 3

While the chicken marinates, prepare the rice. In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, chicken broth, and butter. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Once cooked, fluff with a fork and stir in lime zest. Set aside.

Step 4

Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat. Cook the marinated chicken breasts for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes, then dice into small chunks.

Step 5

In another small bowl, mix together sour cream, mayonnaise, and hot sauce to create the creamy sauce. Adjust the hot sauce to taste if desired.

Step 6

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for 10-15 seconds to make them pliable.

Step 7

To assemble the burritos, lay each tortilla flat. Spread 1-2 tablespoons of the creamy sauce down the center, followed by a scoop of rice, diced chicken, and shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 8

Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly from bottom to top to create a burrito. Repeat for all tortillas.

Step 9

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Place each burrito seam-side down into the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown and lightly crisped.

Step 10

Remove from skillet and serve warm. Enjoy your homemade grilled chicken burritos!
