Grilled Burritos Recipes

Steps:

• To make pork: Lightly oil grill grate. Brush pork with oil and season with chili powder and salt. Grill pork over medium-high heat, with lid closed, about 4 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches between 145 degrees F. (medium rare) to 160 degrees F. (medium) on a digital meat thermometer. Remove from grill and let rest for 3 minutes.
• Place tortillas on grill grate and cook until heated, about 30 seconds per side. Remove from grill and wrap in a napkin to keep warm.
• To assemble burrito: Chop pork into bite-sized pieces. For each burrito, spread 2 tablespoons of beans in a wide strip on center of tortilla. Top with rice and cheese, evenly distributed between the burritos, and 1/6 of chopped pork. Sprinkle with cilantro. Fold in right and left sides, and roll up tortilla from the bottom. Transfer each to a dinner plate. Smother each with one sixth of warm salsa, add lime wedges and serve immediately.
• Prepare grill for direct cooking over medium-high heat, about 450 degrees F. Place tomatillos and jalapeno on grill grate and cook, with the lid closed, turning them occasionally, until jalapeno skin is blackened and blistered (about 5 minutes) and tomatillos are browned but not bursting (7 to 9 minutes). Transfer them to a bowl as they are done, and let cool. Scrape and discard skin from jalapeno. Seed jalapeno, reserving seeds.
• Pulse avocado, tomatillos and any juices, jalapeno (without seeds), onion, cilantro, oil, garlic, salt and sugar in a blender or food processor until smooth. For a spicier salsa, add seeds. Transfer to a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to very low to keep salsa warm. Extra salsa can be stored in the refrigerator and kept up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium heat.
• Split the yellow squash and zucchini lengthwise down the middle. Brush them and the corn with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and grill until the veggies are somewhat soft and have nice grill marks. Allow to cool slightly, then cut the squash and zucchini into large dice. Scrape the corn from the cob.
• Warm the tortillas in a microwave. Heat the black beans in a pot and mash with a fork.
• To build the burritos, heap some Garlic Cilantro Lime Rice, mashed beans and diced veggies in the middle of each tortilla. Top with grated cheese, chopped tomatoes, chopped onions and sour cream. Tuck in the ends and roll into a burrito shape.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and add the rice and salt. Cook over a low heat for 3 minutes, stirring constantly to make sure the rice doesn't burn. Add 2 cups of the broth and the juice and zest of 2 limes and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until the rice is done. Add more liquid as needed. The rice shouldn't be sticky.
• Just before serving, stir through the juice of 1 lime and lots of chopped cilantro.

• Stir well.
• Cook covered for 5 to 10 minutes until meat and sauce are combined.
• Add cooked rice and kidney beans to meat mixture.
• Cook until warmed throughout.
• Warm tortilla shells in microwave for 10-12 seconds.
• Cover center of shell with refried beans.
• Add meat mixture, then cheese, sour cream, taco sauce and whatever other ingredients you prefer.
• Fold over one side of tortilla, then fold in both ends.
• Finally fold over the other side of tortilla.
• Carefully place tortilla folded side down on a warm/hot frying pan or griddle.
• Let brown then turn over and brown other side.

Steps:

• Marinade:.
• To the bowl of a food processor or blender add 1/2 cup water, onion, garlic, 2 tablespoons adobo sauce (from can of chili's), 1 chipotle chili, also from can, chile powder, 1 tablespoon oil, 1 teaspoon salt, cumin, vinegar, oregano, and black pepper.
• Blend until completely smooth, add 1/2 cup water stirring to combine.
• Place chicken in a large non-reactive container, with enough room for the adobo sauce.
• Pour sauce over chicken, turning chicken to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 10 to 12 hours (overnight) for the most intense flavor; chicken can be marinated for up to 2 days. Remove chicken from marinade, pat dry with paper towels, and place in a medium bowl. Season with remaining teaspoon salt.
• Cook Chicken:.
• Heat oven to 375°F In a large cast-iron skillet, over medium, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Cook chicken until dark golden brown on one side, about 5 minutes; turn chicken over and continue to cook until the underside is dark brown, another 5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and transfer to oven. Cook until chicken is opaque throughout, but still juicy, about 8 to 10 minutes chicken should be165°F on a instant-read thermometer. Carefully remove pan from oven. Remove chicken to a cutting board, tent with foil, and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Slice chicken into 1/2-inch chunks.
• Assemble: Heat tortillas according to package instructions. One at a time, dividing fillings evenly, mound chicken, rice, cheese, beans, and guacamole on one side of tortilla. Fold sides over filling and hold them in place. Starting from the filled end, holding sides in and carefully roll the filled end tightly over the rest of the tortilla forming a log. Set aside, seam side down, and roll remaining burritos.

Steps:

• Place bacon in a cold, nonstick pan over medium to medium-high heat. Cook until browned, crisp, and foamy, about 10 minutes. Turn off the heat, remove to a paper towel-lined plate, and set aside.
• Place cubed potatoes into the pan of bacon fat and set heat to medium. Season with salt, black pepper, and cayenne. Cook, tossing and turning occasionally, until the potatoes are browned, crispy, and tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Add onions and peppers, and cook until they soften up a bit, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer everything into a strainer set over a bowl to drain excess bacon fat.
• To make one breakfast burrito, place 2 strips cooked bacon back in the pan. Turn heat to medium and scatter 1/2 of the potato mixture in and around. Scatter over 1/2 of the Cheddar cheese as evenly as possible, and then pour 2 beaten eggs over top.
• Tilt the pan to make sure the egg is evenly distributed. Place a tortilla over the top and press down lightly into the rest of the ingredients. Cook just until the eggs firm up enough to flip, about 1 minute. Use a spatula to carefully, but confidently, flip everything over so the tortilla is now on the bottom. Cook until the tortilla is as browned and crispy as you like, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and transfer onto a plate. Roll into a burrito and serve with hot sauce, avocado, sour cream, and cilantro. Repeat to cook remaining burrito.

Steps:

• In a small bowl combine marinade ingredients. Pour the mixture over the chicken breasts and Marinade overnight.
• Cook the chicken on your barbecue or indoor grill over med-high heat for 5-6 minute per side, or until done. Slice the chicken into bite-size chunks.
• Add the enchilada sauce to the rice. Put on the rice over low heat, uncovered, and cook until hot.
• Heat the tortillas in a steamer, or wrap them in moist towels and heat on high for 25-30 sec. in the microwave.
• Build the burrito by spreading 1/4 of the chicken down the middle of one of the tortillas. Leave room at the end for folding. Spread 1/4 of the rice over the chicken. Sprinkle a heaping tablespoon of each of the cheeses over the rice. Sprinkle sliced green onions to taste. Fold up.
• You may want to heat up each burrito in the microwave for 20-30 sec. to help the cheese melt.
• NOTES : I also spoon a little more enchilada sauce over chicken mixture.

Steps:

• Heat 1/4 cup of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry potatoes until almost cooked through, then add onions and peppers, continuing to cook until vegetables are tender. Drain, set aside.
• In the same skillet, melt butter or margarine over medium heat. Scramble eggs, adding potatoes, vegetables, and sausage during the last few moments of cooking. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Top each tortilla with cheese and part of the egg mixture, roll into a burrito. Spray a hot grill (I use a family size George Foreman) with cooking spray. Grill for approximately 10 minutes or until lightly browned.
• Serve hot with homemade Pico De Gallo, salsa, sour cream, or perhaps Spanish rice and refried beans.
