Jalapeño Chicken Burrito

Ingredients:

½ cup finely chopped jalapeño pepper, divided

½ cup shredded part-skim mozzarella

½ cup thinly sliced green onion

½ cup diced Roma tomatoes

1 tsp olive oil

¼ tsp salt

¼ tsp ground black pepper

3 oz. cooked, shredded chicken breast

Directions

1. In a small bowl, mix half of the jalapeño pepper with the cheese.

2. On a sheet pan lined with parchment paper, spread the jalapeno cheese mixture into a 6 to 7-inch circle.

3. Turn on the broiler in an oven or toaster oven.

4. Broil until crisp about 5 to 6 minutes, then carefully flip the tortilla and broil for another 2 to 3 minutes until lightly browned and crisp.

5. To make the burrito stuffing: in a small nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil to medium heat and add the green onion. Cook until soft, reduce the heat, and add the tomatoes, rest of the jalapeño peppers, salt and pepper. Cook until soft, then stir in the shredded chicken.

6. Fill your cheese tortilla with the chicken mixture and wrap like a burrito. Enjoy warm.
