In a medium bowl, mix soy sauce, olive oil, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, garlic powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and lime juice to create the marinade.
Slice the seitan into thin strips and add them to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes.
While the seitan is marinating, warm the tortillas in a pan or microwave until pliable.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated seitan along with any remaining marinade to the skillet.
Cook the seitan for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the edges are slightly crispy and the seitan is heated through.
Lay each tortilla flat, and start layering the ingredients: add 1/2 cup of rice, 1/4 cup of black beans, cooked seitan, a sprinkle of fresh cilantro, a few slices of avocado, a spoonful of salsa, and a handful of shredded lettuce.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, if desired.
Carefully roll each tortilla into a burrito shape by folding in the sides and then rolling up from the bottom to securely enclose the filling.
Cut the burritos in half if desired, and serve immediately.
