Instructions

  • Prep all ingredients per instructions above.
  • Cook the rice according to package instructions. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cook the chicken: In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook the chicken, browning well, to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Set aside.
  • Make the queso: Mix the ingredients (except for the chips) in a saucepan over low heat. Stir occasionally, until the cheese is melted and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover with a lid to keep warm.
  • Make the guacamole: Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork and make it as chunky or smooth as you'd like. Add the remaining ingredients and stir together. Give it a taste test and add more salt or lime juice if needed.
  • Assemble burritos: Lay out the flour tortillas. In the center of each tortilla, add cooked rice, chicken, diced tomatoes, shredded cheddar cheese. Add some of the guacamole on top.
  • Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly to form a burrito.
  • Place all margarita mocktail ingredients into a pitcher or drink shaker. Mix until the honey is dissolved. Adjust any of the ingredients as needed to taste. Serve over ice if desired.
  • Enjoy chicken and rice burrito with guac, chips and queso, and margarita mocktail.
