Southwestern Chicken & Pepper Wraps
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients:
- 2 boneless chicken breasts
- 1 green pepper
- 1 onion
- 1 can of black beans
- 1 cup of MINUTE White Rice
- 1 cup of water
- 1 tablespoon of oil (divided)
- 4 flour tortillas
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Chicken: Start by heating half of the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Cut the chicken breasts into small, bite-sized pieces and add them to the skillet. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring often, until the chicken is no longer pink and the juices have evaporated.
-
Cook the Peppers and Onions: Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining oil to the skillet. Slice the green pepper and onion, then add them to the skillet with the chicken. Cook until the peppers and onions are tender-crisp, stirring often to prevent burning.
-
Prepare the Rice and Beans Mixture: Next, add the can of black beans (make sure to drain and rinse them first) to the skillet, along with the water. Allow the mixture to come to a boil.
-
Add the Rice: Once boiling, stir in the MINUTE White Rice. Cover the skillet and remove it from the heat. Let it stand for 5 minutes to allow the rice to cook and absorb the flavors.
-
Assemble the Wraps: While the rice is resting, warm the flour tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave. Spoon about 3/4 cup of the chicken and rice mixture down the center of each tortilla. Fold the tortillas around the filling, creating a wrap.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Your Southwestern Chicken & Pepper Wraps are now ready to be served! These wraps are bursting with flavor and make for a satisfying meal or snack any time of day. Enjoy!
