In a bowl, mix chipotle chili, olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper. Coat the flank steak with this mixture, then cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for more intense flavor.
Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove steak from fridge and let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
Grill the steak for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until it reaches desired doneness. After grilling, remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.
Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
To assemble the burritos, place a tortilla on a flat surface. In the center, add 1/4 of the cooked brown rice, 1/4 cup black beans, a few slices of steak, and some red onion slices.
Top with avocado, a sprinkle of cilantro, and a few spoonfuls of tomato salsa.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from bottom to top to enclose the filling.
Repeat with remaining tortillas and ingredients. Serve immediately.
