Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Large flour tortillas
- 2 cups Shredded Mexican cheese blend
- 2 cups Cooked shredded chicken (or preferred filling)
- 1 cup Refried beans
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Salsa
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil or melted butter
- Optional toppings (guacamole, jalapeños, etc.)
Instructions
Preheat your sandwich maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of refried beans in the center, leaving about 1 inch of space around the edges.
Add a layer of shredded chicken on top of the beans, followed by a sprinkle of shredded cheese (about 1/4 cup), and a small dollop of sour cream or salsa if desired.
Fold the edges of the tortilla inward to form a sealed rectangular pocket, ensuring the filling won't spill out.
Brush the outside of the burrito with a bit of olive oil or melted butter for a crispy finish.
Place the wrapped burrito seam-side down into the preheated sandwich maker. Close the lid gently but firmly to ensure even cooking and sealing of the tortilla.
Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the outside is golden brown and crispy. Cooking times may vary depending on your sandwich maker.
Carefully remove the burrito (it will be hot!) and let it cool slightly before cutting if desired.
Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas and fillings.
Serve immediately with your favorite toppings like guacamole, salsa, or jalapeños.
