Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- Juice of 1 orange
- Juice of 1 lime
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ red bell pepper (diced)
- ½ yellow onion (diced)
- ½ cup corn kernels
- ½ cup black beans (rinsed and drained)
- ½ cup green chilies
- 1½ cups shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
- 2 large flour tortillas
- Extra lime juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro (chopped)
Instructions
- Marinate the chicken by mixing citrus juices, olive oil, seasoning, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Coat the chicken well and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium heat. Cook diced bell pepper, onion, corn, and black beans for about 5–7 minutes until softened. Stir in green chilies and cook for an additional 2 minutes before removing from heat.
- Place the marinated chicken on the hot griddle and cook for 6–8 minutes per side until golden brown. Chop into bite-sized pieces and sprinkle shredded cheese over it until melted.
- Warm tortillas on the griddle for about 30 seconds each. Assemble burritos by adding the vegetable mixture and cheesy chicken to each tortilla. Top with cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice before rolling tightly.
- Toast assembled burritos seam-side down on the griddle for 1–2 minutes per side until crispy.
