How to cook deliciously - Cheesy Baked Burritos

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 350°. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and sauté until soft. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add chicken and about 1/2 cup enchilada sauce, or until the chicken is fully coated. Toss until evenly combined. Stir in lime juice, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

2. Stage

Working one burrito at a time, lay a tortilla on a cutting board or clean working service. Add a scoopful each of rice and beans to the center. Add the chicken mixture then top with a small handful each of both cheeses. Reserve about ½ cup of cheese total to sprinkle on the burritos before baking. Roll the burrito tightly and place in a large casserole dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

3. Stage

Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the burritos then sprinkle the extra cheeses on top. Cover until the cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.

4. Stage

Garnish with cilantro and serve with sour cream and hot sauce, if desired.
