Clean the portobello mushroom caps with a damp paper towel and remove the stems.
In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, lime juice, orange juice, minced garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, black pepper, and salt.
Place the mushrooms in a shallow dish, pour the marinade over them, and let them marinate for at least 20 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even coating.
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat.
Grill the marinated mushrooms for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are soft and have nice grill marks.
Remove the mushrooms from the heat and let them cool slightly, then slice them into strips.
Warm the flour tortillas in a pan or microwave until soft and pliable.
Place a warm tortilla on a flat surface, and layer with cooked rice, black beans, grilled mushroom slices, diced red onion, cilantro, chopped tomatoes, cheddar cheese, sour cream, jalapeños, and sliced avocado.
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly to form a burrito.
Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas.
Serve immediately, optionally with salsa or additional toppings as desired.
