Nothing fancy, but these always are well-received:
RL's Easy Baked Chicken Burritos
4 chicken breasts
1 can refried beans
1 can black beans, drained well.
onion powder (or chopped onions)
hot sauce
shredded sharp cheddar or other cheese
large tortillas
aluminum foil
sour cream
guacamole
Dice the chicken breasts and fry in butter or margarine until golden brown on all sides and a little bit crispy. Optional: Add a generous splash of tequila while frying. Recommended: Save most of your tequila for drinking. The more you drink, the better these burritos will taste!
Tear a square sheet of aluminum foil that is slightly larger than the tortillas, and place one tortilla on top of it.
Using a soup spoon, spread one heaping scoop of refried beans in the center of the tortilla. (You can vary all of these portions to taste.)
Do the same with the black beans.
Sprinkle generous amount of onion powder over beans (or add onions if you prefer).
Add chicken on top of the beans. I usually use two scoops with the same size spoon.
Add hot sauce -- I usually use 1-3 Taco Bell hot sauce packets, but you can use anything you want. Just don't use too much or the burritos will not cook well.
Cover with cheese -- about one large pinch using all fingers.
Wrap the tortilla, then wrap the burrito in the foil.
Bake 45-60 minutes at 450 degrees, turning once. (Temperature may vary depending on your oven -- I make these in a toaster oven.)
Be careful opening the foil and the burritos -- they will be extremely hot.
Cover burrito with sour cream, guacamole and/or more hot sauce to taste.
Enjoy. Recommend Dos Equis Special Lager as accompanying beverage.
Makes about 8 burritos depending on how much you put in each one.
