Ingredients

• 200 grams Seitan
• 1 cup BBQ sauce
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 Whole wheat tortillas
• 2 cups Cooked brown rice
• 1 cup Black beans
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
• 1 Avocado
• 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro
• 1 Lime
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Start by preheating a medium-sized skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Step 2

Cut the seitan into thin strips resembling brisket slices.

Step 3

In the skillet, add the seitan strips and cook for 5-7 minutes until they start to crisp up slightly.

Step 4

Add the BBQ sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper to the seitan in the skillet.

Step 5

Cook the mixture for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the seitan is well-coated and warmed through.

Step 6

While the seitan is cooking, dice the cherry tomatoes and avocado.

Step 7

Drain and rinse the black beans, then add them to a bowl along with the cooked brown rice, tomatoes, and avocado.

Step 8

Chop the cilantro and add it to the bowl, then squeeze the juice of the lime over the mixture. Season with salt and gently toss all the ingredients together.

Step 9

To assemble the burritos, begin by laying out a tortilla on a flat surface. Place a generous portion of the seitan brisket across the center.

Step 10

Top with the rice and bean mixture, making sure to distribute filling evenly.

Step 11

Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from bottom to top.

Step 12

Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and filling.

Step 13

Serve the burritos warm, either as they are or lightly grilled for added texture, and enjoy!
