Chicken and Black Bean Burrito Bowls
Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless chicken breasts, cut into small pieces
- 1 15 oz can black beans drained and rinsed
- 1/2 medium yellow onion chopped
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp cumin
- Hot cooked rice (I love to use my cilantro lime rice), Mexican cheese blend, salsa, guacamole, hot sauce, etc for serving
Instructions
- Heat a bit of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onions and sauté a few minutes until they start to soften.
- Add chicken, cumin and chili powder and cook until chicken is cooked through.
- Add black beans a cook another minute, stirring to combine, until the beans are warmed through.
- Serve over hot cilantro lime rice (or plain rice) and top with your favorite burrito/taco toppings.
Notes
What to serve with it: We love this recipe on top of Cilantro Lime Rice and topped with our homemade guacamole.
These could also be served in large tortillas as burritos. I also sometimes put the filling into a tortilla for my son and top it with cheese and guacamole. He much prefers tacos and doesn't really care for rice. My other son eats it like a burrito bowl.
