Amount Ingredient
1/8 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
12 x flour tortillas - (8" dia)
2 x green onions sliced
2 x boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1 can black beans - (10 oz) drained, rinsed
1/4 cup mild or medium salsa
1 cup cooked rice - (1/3 cup raw)
1 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup frozen kernel corn thawed
1 tsp chili powder
Instructions:
Instructions: In a medium saucepan, bring 1 inch of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add chicken; reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer 15 minutes, or until chicken is tender. Remove chicken from water and let cool.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Coat a 9- by 13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

Cut cooled chicken into small pieces. In a medium bowl, combine chicken, beans, 1/2 cup of the salsa, rice, 1/2 cup of the cheese, corn, chili powder, salt and pepper; mix well. Spread about 1/3 cup of the chicken mixture across center of each tortilla; roll up.

Arrange burritos in baking dish; spread remaining 3/4 cup of the salsa over top. Cover with foil and bake 20 minutes. Remove from oven; uncover and sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup of the cheese on top.

Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees. Bake, uncovered, 10 minutes longer. Sprinkle with green onions and serve.

This recipe yields 6 servings.

Comments: Although boneless chicken breasts can be pricey, this recipe uses just two for six hungry eaters. The corn, beans, and cheese help stretch the meal.
