Zubereitung von Burritos With Chicken And Rice
- Bring a saucepan of lightly salted water (about 4 cups) to a boil.
- Add 1 cup of long-grain rice and cook for 8 minutes.
- Drain the rice, rinse with cold water, and drain again.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, finely chopped, along with 1 teaspoon ground cloves and 1 teaspoon dried oregano. Fry for 2-3 minutes until softened.
- Stir in the cooked rice and 1 (14.5 ounce) can of diced tomatoes, undrained. Cook over low heat for 5-7 minutes, or until most of the tomato juice has been absorbed. Set aside.
- Place 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound total) in a large saucepan. Pour in enough water to cover completely and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and easily shreds with a fork.
- Remove the chicken from the pan, place it on a plate to cool slightly, then shred using two forks.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Add the shredded chicken to the rice mixture along with 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of sour cream (optional).
- Wrap 10-12 large flour tortillas individually in foil and place them on a plate.
- Steam the tortillas by placing the plate over a pot of boiling water for 5 minutes. (Alternatively, microwave individually wrapped tortillas for 30-45 seconds on high).
- Spoon about 1/2 cup of the filling into the center of each tortilla.
- Fold in both sides of the tortilla, then fold the bottom up and over the filling.
- Secure with a toothpick.
- Place the filled burritos in a shallow baking dish, cover with foil, and keep warm in the preheated oven while you prepare the remaining burritos.
- Remove toothpicks before serving. Sprinkle with fresh oregano (optional).
- Serve immediately with your favorite fresh salsa.
