Grilled Chicken Avocado Burritos

I made these healthier burritos for my husband the other night and they were so good I had to share!

Grilled Chicken Avocado Burritos
Makes 4 burritos

Ingredients
2 boneless skinless chicken breast
1 15 oz can black beans
1 cup salsa verde ( I love the taco bell kind)
4 flour tortillas
1/2 cup red salsa or pico de gallo salsa
1 cup shredded monetary cheese
1 avocado, thinly sliced

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees 
  • Season the chicken breast with some salt pepper and garlic powder, pour the green salsa verde over the chicken and coat evenly. Place in the oven and cook for about 30 minutes or until the chicken is filly cooked.
  • Heat the beans in a pan and smash them a little with the back of the spoon. ( you want some of them to still be whole) Drain any remaining liquid. 
  • Once the chicken is cooked, slice it very thinly. 
  • To assemble the burritos, layer the beans down first, then add the chicken, some of the red salsa sliced avocados and the cheese, roll up the burritos. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  • Light the grill or grill pan on medium and and place the burritos seam side down. Leave on the grill for about 3 minutes until you see grill marks. Turn over and repeat on the other side. 
  • Enjoy with more salsa if you dare!
