Instructions
Creating the Grilled Cheese Burrito is simple when you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, combine the shredded cheese, cooked chicken, black beans, and diced bell peppers. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
2. Warm the Tortillas: Heat the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or until they are warm and pliable.
3. Fill the Tortillas: Place a generous amount of the cheese mixture in the center of each tortilla.
4. Fold the Tortilla: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from the bottom up, enclosing the filling completely.
5. Prepare to Grill: Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Once melted, place the burrito seam-side down in the skillet.
6. Grill the Burrito: Cook for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown, then carefully flip to the other side and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the burrito is crispy.
7. Remove and Slice: Once cooked, remove the burrito from the skillet and let it cool for a minute. Slice in half for easy serving.
8. Optional Toppings: Serve with salsa, sour cream, or guacamole for dipping if desired.
