Chipotle Chicken Wraps

These chicken wraps are the perfect take along food to a picnic as they're delicious hot or cold.

Easy to make and easy to eat. I bet you can't eat just one.

When hubby and I get into the kitchen to cook most times what comes out is pretty good. I made the wraps while hubby made his Mile High Nachos.

I added guacamole to the wraps but you could easily make them without if you prefer.

Chicken Chipotle Hot Sauce Fajitas

My family couldn't get enough of these delicious fajitas I made for dinner. The thing I did differently than ever before was to marinate the boneless chicken breast meat in a lemon, olive oil, and chipotle hot sauce before cooking it. It gave the chicken just the right spicy kick I was looking for.

Chicken Chipotle Fajitas served with a side of rice.

Ingredients for Marinade

• 5 skinless boneless chicken breasts
• ground cumin
• cilantro flakes  
• 1/8 cup of lemon juice
• 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil
• 1/4 cup of chipotle hot sauce

Instructions

• Slice the chicken breasts into strips and set in a dish for marinating. 
• Season the chicken with cumin and cilantro flakes coating well.
• Add the lemon juice and olive oil and gently toss.
• Coat the chicken with the chipotle hot sauce (you can use less or more depending on your taste) Cover and set in the fridge for at least 2 hours.

While the chicken is marinating I like to get all of my other ingredients ready to go.

Ingredients

Guacamole & Fajita Fixings

• 1 large green pepper sliced
• 1/2 of a very large sweet white onion sliced thick
• 2 tomatoes chopped
• 1/4 head of iceberg or romaine lettuce chopped 
• 2 cups of cheddar cheese grated
• 10 large flour tortillas  

Guacamole 

For the guacamole I mashed 1 large avocado with 1/4 cup of sweet red onion together with lemon juice, cilantro, and ground cumin.

  

Instruction for cooking the chicken

Chicken, onions and green peppers

• When you're ready to cook heat a wok or large frying pan and add the chicken with all the marinade and stir fry until cooked. 
• Push the chicken up the side of the wok and add the onion slices. Cook for 3 minutes and then add the green pepper slices. Cook for 3 min or more if you like your green peppers cooked longer. 

Construct your fajitas or have everyone make their own. Serve with a side of sour cream, more hot sauce and or salsa. ENJOY!

Delicioso Burritos

Hubby and I discovered a fast food chain called Mucho Burrito. Quite often while traveling in and around the Barrie, Ontario area we will stop at Mucho for lunch or dinner. Wanting to create the same taste sensation at home it took hubby two tries to get an even better tasting burrito.

Ingredients

• Spanish rice cooked and ready to use
• chopped tomato
• re-fried beans
• 1 - 2 pounds of lean ground beef fried, and drained
• burrito seasoning
• cumin
• chili spice
• shredded cheddar cheese
• sour cream
• side pan of stir fry green peppers, onions, and mushrooms
• jalapeno peppers
• large to extra large tortillas

Instructions on how to make delicioso burritos

1. Start by cooking your Spanish rice to have it ready when you need it to build and roll your burritos. Stir in a chopped tomato.
2. In a small pan stir fry the green peppers, onions and mushrooms and set aside.
3. Cook the ground beef and add the burrito mix, cumin, and chili spice mixing well.
4. Spread the tortillas with re-fried beans and then add some of the Spanish rice, hamburger mix, shredded cheese, stir fry veggies, jalapeno peppers and sour cream.
5. Close one end of the burrito by tucking and rolling.
6. In a George Foreman or Pannini Press Sandwich maker press and cook the burrito until cheese is melted and tortilla is browned.
7. Serve with extra sour cream, salsa and guacamole. ENJOY!

BBQ or grill indoors all year round with an indoor grill. Healthier eating is easy with these as the grease is removed as you are cooking. Great for sandwiches, burgers, steaks, seafood and grilled vegetables.
