Grilled Tortilla With Veggies And Black Beans Burrito


Ingredients

1 tablespoon butter
1/2 onion chopped
1 clove garlic finely chopped
2 jalapeno peppers seeded and finely chopped (use less if you don’t like too much heat)
20 cherry tomatoes halved
1 (15 oz) can of black beans drained
1/2 cup frozen corn defrosted and drained
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Juice of 1/2 lime
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
6 large flour tortillas
1/2 cup sour cream optional
1 tablespoon fresh chives chopped (optional)
Cooking spray

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet to medium heat and melt the butter.
  2. Add the onion, garlic, jalapeno peppers and tomatoes stirring gently till softened.
  3. Then add the black beans, corn, cumin, lime juice, salt and pepper, continuing to stir until the mixture is heated through.
  4. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the cheddar cheese and cilantro.
  5. Spoon heated bean mixture in center of tortillas and fold closing in the edges. NOTE: Drain the excess liquid through a slotted spoon before stuffing and grilling the tortilla … otherwise they will be soggy rather than crispy.
  6. Spray a light coating of cooking spray on the grill pan.
  7. Add the folded burritos to a grill pan to crisp, turning to toast all sides.
  8. Serve warm with a side of sour cream garnished with chopped fresh chives.
