6 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
12 larges Flour tortillas
6 Skinless boneless chicken breast halves

Ground cumin
1 tablespoon Olive oil
Three-Bean Salad (see recipe)
2 Avocados, peeled, sliced, rinsed under cold

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350F. Stack the tortillas on a large piece of aluminum foil. Wrap the foil around the tortillas, covering completely. Bake for about 15 minutes, until heated through.

Meanwhile, sprinkle the chicken with the lime juice, chili powder, cumin and salt. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Add the chicken and saute until cooked through, about 15 minutes per side. Cut the chicken crosswise into strips and transfer to a bowl.

Transfer the tortillas to a cloth-lined basket.

Arrange the tortillas, checken, salad and condiments on the table.

Allow the family members to assemble their own burritos.

Makes 6 servings.
