(Burritos de Pollo Asada)
Category: Folded and Wrapped Tortilla Snacks
Burritos probably originated in the state of Sonora and never spread deep into Mexico, but certainly gained in fame and size when established in the United States. These grilled chicken burritos are typical of the ones made at Burritos Bol Corona in Tijuana.
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 (11-inch) flour tortillas
1 1/2 cups heated refried beans, canned or homemade
1 cup spicy fresh salsa (red or green), purchased or homemade
1 cup very finely shredded lettuce
1. Preheat a grill, broiler, or stovetop grill pan. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and lime juice. Brush both sides with vegetable oil. Cook over hot coals, under a hot oven broiler, or in a hot grill pan until lightly browned on both sides and opaque in the center, 6 to 8 minutes total. Chop into small pieces or cut into thin strips.
2. Warm the tortillas in a large hot skillet, 1 at a time, turning, until soft and pliable, about 20 seconds per tortilla. Layer the warm tortillas with 1/4 of the refried beans, salsa, chicken, and lettuce. Fold in the sides and roll. Serve at once.
