Ultimate Burritos (Easy) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 chicken breasts, fried and diced into small pieces
    2 cups cooked rice
    16 ounces salsa
    16 ounces refried beans
    12 ounces shredded cheese
    8 large flour tortillas
    1 tablespoon olive oil
Preparation
    1) Dice chicken breasts into cubes. Fry in lightly oiled frying pan until cooked through. Cut into small chunks. (This recipe is also a great way to use up leftover rotisserie chicken from the night before - just strip the remaining chicken and dice into bits).
    2) Boil rice, set aside.
    3) Assemble burritos. I layer the ingredients in the following order - first refried beans, then salsa, then rice, chicken, then cheese. However, any order will do. Fold the burrito - see pictures for how.
    4) Heat 1 tbsp oil in a frying pan. I like olive oil, but vegetable oil will also work. Heat between med-low and med temperature. There should be just enough oil to grease the bottom of the frying pan without pooling.
    5) Fry each burrito lightly on each side until golden brown. Add additional oil as needed. I find that I usually add a drizzle of oil after frying two burritos. Serve hot!
